OII-Panama City to build umbilical

Oceaneering International Inc., with a corporate HQ in Houston, has secured a contract from Anadarko Petroleum Corp. of Woodlands, Texas, to supply an umbilical for APC’s Constellation subsea tieback in the Gulf of Mexico. The contract is for an electro-hydraulic steel tube control umbilical and hardware. The umbilical is expected to be used to transmit hydraulic control fluid and chemicals; provide electrical power and fiber optics and subsea wells monitoring requirements in some 4,500 feet of water within Green Canyon Block 627. OII plans to design and manufacture the umbilical at its facility in Panama City, Fla.
