C-Innovation, an affiliate of Edison Chouest Offshore and its family of companies, has announced the signing of a new three-year contract with bp. The agreement will see C-Innovation providing field development as well as inspection, maintenance, and repair (IMR) services to support bp’s offshore operations.
The contract, which has options for two one-year extensions, is for the provision of two subsea construction vessels, C-Constructor and MV Holiday, and access to a vast fleet of specialized subsea and supply vessels. It also includes project management, engineering, equipment, logistics, and port services. The C-Constructor and Holiday are both light construction vessels equipped with 150 MT subsea cranes and two Schilling UHD work class ROVs each.
The multi-year commitment of two dedicated IMR construction vessels is another major milestone in the longstanding relationship between both parties that exhibits C-Innovation’s industry leading capability to provide tailored offshore service packages to meet its clients’ needs.
Ryan Combs, C-Innovation’s bp Program Manager, said, “This multi-year contract in the Gulf of Mexico secures the C-Constructor and Holiday to support a diverse array of subsea activities including construction, inspection, survey and decommissioning projects. C-Innovation will act as the contracting lead from front end engineering to offshore execution. A crucial factor in winning this award is C-Innovation’s access and integration of the unmatched resources available within the Edison Chouest Offshore family of companies. This new award is the continuation of a well-established relationship with bp and demonstrates our ability to deliver on our commitments and continuously improve our services year after year.”
