HOUSTON — InterMoor’s Morgan City facility has been awarded a contract for the installation of the drilling and production conductors for the Papa Terra project that has Petrobras as operator and Chevron as non-operator.

InterMoor will design, procure, fabricate and install 15 conductors for the project. All 15 conductors are 36 inches in diameter.

The conductors will be installed in water depths up to 3,937 feet off the Brazilian coast in the southern Campos Basin. The installation is scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter of this year.

DOF Subsea’s construction anchor handling vessel, Skandi Skolten, will be utilized.

InterMoor President Tom Fulton said his company is honored to be part of the first tension-leg wellhead platform in Brazil. A TLWP is a moored floating structure.

“InterMoor has been developing its strength in the Brazil market through our local office in Rio de Janeiro and this project award confirms the dedication of our efforts to expand our opportunities in the region,” Fulton said.
