InterMoor To Replace Wires On TLP's Mooring System

摘要

InterMoor, an Acteon company, has been contracted by Shell Exploration & Production Company to replace the platform wires on the Auger TLP's lateral mooring system in the Gulf of Mexico. The eight platform wires that will be replaced on the Auger TLP are composed of non-jacketed spiral-strand wire. In addition to the offshore operations, InterMoor is performing the project management, engineering and fabrication of installation aids which includes a hang off porch that is to be fitted to the stern of the installation vessel to facilitate operations. DOF Subsea will provide the Skandi Skolten, a newly-built construction anchor handling vessel that will be utilized for the work. The vessel was scheduled to arrive in the Gulf in March 2011 and the project completed two months later in May.
