Mexican state oil company Pemex is expected to take a decision in early July on the bids it has received for the platform delivery contract. The initial workscope calls for the delivery of four platforms to the Ayatsil-Tekel heavy oil trend, an offshore heavy oil field located in water depths ranging from 90 to 120 metres.
The bids that companies such as Protexa have made came in substantially lower than some earlier estimates, and range between $114 million and $173 million.
