Royal IHC Wins Chinese Contract
Thursday 1 December 2016
Dutch company Royal IHC has been awarded a contract to supply, what it claims will be, the first reel lay system in the Chinese market.
The award from China’s Shanghai Salvage for the 550-tonne reel lay system includes rigid pipe as well as flexible pipe lay capability.
The pipelay system will be installed on a new construction vessel for Shanghai Salvage during the first quarter of 2020, which will then be followed by sea trails.
Royal IHC subsidiary IHC Engineering Business will lead the project with engineering concept design already underway.
