Workscope:
Three umbilicals spooled from our OTP quay directly onto the CDA vessel. The three umbilicals (18,040m in total) were taken from either TechnipFMC’s Carousel G or F. The umbilicals were broken down as Dynamic North Carousel G - 5,082m, Dynamic South Carousel G - 5,266m and Infield SEAT 2 Carousel F - 7,692m. Our 325t hammerhead crane was used to lift the first and second end of each umbilical. We provided 24/7 line-watch and vessel support for the duration of the loadout and we supported the lifting of ancillary items such as buoyancy modules, containers, spreader beams and mudmats.
