Mooring Systems Ltd were contracted by EMAS Offshore a Singapore based company to supply a TCMS® system for the Lewek Arunthai FPSO Arthit Field in Gulf of Thailand. The scope of supply was the TCMS® hardware including anchors, guide frames and node as well as Engineering Design of the Riser and Mooring system. The scope was completed in November 2008 and Arthit will shortly come on-stream.

Mooring Systems Ltd. Supplied a QCDC fluid transfer system for the Bressy EWT. This unit was installed onboard the Stena Spey. 400mt of export pipline c/w hose end connector and ESD valve was installed onboard the BW Carmen. MSL also supplied rigging supervision and riggers for both Rig and vessel. Once hooked up , heavy crude oil was heated , and pumped into the BW Carmens tanks.

Mooring Systems Ltd were approached by Petrofac Engineering Ltd to provide equipment and expertise to modify the existing umbilical arrangement offshore Tunisia. Mooring Systems role was to:

• Assist with project planning.
• Write rigging and lifting plans for lowering umbilical , transferring onto a DSV.
• Participate in site visits on the FPSO, support vessels.
• Procure , supply all necessary equipment ( including our spooling unit) to carry out the tasks in a safe and controlled manner.
• Supply rigging supervision , rigging teams.

The work involved lowering the damaged umbilical from the FPSO through the guide frames, and transferring them onto the DSV. These were then pulled onboard by the Mooring Systems spooler.

The damaged section was substituted for a temporary umbilical, in order to maintain maximum production. Once the damaged umbilical was repaired onshore it was returned to the field, installed, tested and de-rigged.

This project was conducted in a safe and controlled manner, on time and within budget.
