DeepOcean Ghana wins three-year contract with Tullow

AMSTERDAM, Netherlands -- DeepOcean Ghana has been awarded a three-year contract with options for two additional years, to provide a light construction vessel to Tullow Ghana.

In this regard, DeepOcean Ghana mobilized the DP2 ROV/construction vessel Dina Star, with two DeepOcean Ghana-owned 220 HP Constructor ROV systems, and commenced offshore activities in March 2016. The scope of work includes inspection, maintenance and repair (IMR), surveys, and subsea construction on the Tullow Ghana-operated Jubilee and TEN fields offshore Ghana.

DeepOcean Ghana, an indigenous Ghanaian company in which Deep Ocean B.V. holds a 49% shareholding, commenced its working relationship with Tullow Ghana in February 2015 when it mobilized the Rem Forza to undertake multi-purpose construction activities on Jubilee.

The Rem Forza has now been replaced by the Dina Star, allowing the Rem Forza to continue working with Tullow Ghana to provide accommodation and construction support on the TEN project from March 2016.
