India turret job for NOV

National Oilwell Varco has been awarded a contract to supply a large submerged turret production system for a newbuild floating production, storage and offloading vessel bound for India.

The US contractor said its client is South Korea's Samsung Heavy Industries, which won the FPSO contract with Reliance Industries in April 2019.

NOV said the "unique, innovative and flexible turret mooring system would be used for Reliance Industries' FPSO on a major deep-water gas and condensate project off India's east coast in the Bay of Bengal".

The FPSO is destined for the MJ deep-water field in Block KG-D6.

The double-hulled vessel is likely to be designed to handle 60,000 barrels per day of liquids and around 448 million cubic feet per day of gas.
