Thursday 15 February 2018

Croonwolter&dros and Bakker Sliedrecht have obtained the order to engineer, manufacturer, install and commission the complete electrical installation of the new reel lay vessel that Royal IHC is building for Subsea 7. The technologically advanced ship is intended for the installation of complex rigid flowlines, including pipe-in-pipe and electrical trace heating systems. This cost-effective technology will address the market trends towards longer tie-back developments.

Delivery of the vessel is scheduled for the first half 2020. To ensure timely delivery, the project team of Croonwolter&dros and Bakker is working on-site at the shipyard of Royal IHC in the Netherlands to ensure great collaboration between all key suppliers.
