The consortium won a contract from Brazil’s Petrobras for two identical 550-tonne flexible pipelaying support vessels worth about $1 billion – with the company also awarding contracts to SapuraCrest and Subsea 7, as Upstream reported in November.
In an announcement, Wartsila said the VS 4146 PLV design to be used for the vessels would cater for optimal fuel consumption in the design conditions.
“They will be utilised mainly to install umbilical and flexible flow lines and risers to connect sub-sea wells to floating production units in waters more than 2500 metres deep,” Wartsila said.
The vessels will be built at the Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering shipyard in South Korea.
