Aker Solutions has signed a contract to provide subsea control systems for Phases 4 and 5 of Beach Energy’s Otway project offshore Victoria, Australia. The order includes 7 sets of Vectus subsea control modules (SCMs), which will be backward compatible to the existing topside MCS and EPU, along with associated stab plates and testing equipment.
Aker’s Vectus SCMs will be integrated with subsea trees in the Otway field.
The Otway project consists of a pair of gas fields tied back to a not-normally-planned platform in 100-m water depth, processed 80 km onshore at the Otway Gas Plant near Port Campbell, Victoria, Australia.
