The new global agreement will minimize the total expenditure and delivery time of offshore developments, including energy transition projects, by pre-provisioning the deployment of key components and providing flexibility on vessel and equipment delivery schedules.
The one team philosophy combines Baker Hughes’ extensive technology and engineering offering with Ocean Installer’s subsea and marine operations expertise and enhances an already successful North Sea collaboration that was first concepted on the Balder Future integrated subsea production system, umbilicals, risers and flowlines (SPS+SURF) project for Vår Energi in Norway in 2019.
The duo will work closely with global customers to de-risk their commercial and operational activities and deliver significant project efficiencies, as well as continuing to focus on safety and emissions reductions.
“Having successfully worked together on several projects in the North Sea, Baker Hughes looks forward to continuing our collaboration with Ocean Installer to deliver integrated solutions for targeted projects,” said Dave Dillon, senior vice president, Subsea & Surface Pressure Systems at Baker Hughes.
“Together, using our Subsea Connect framework, we will continue to advance innovation, deliver optimal solutions to our customers and drive positive change in the industry.”
