FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: May 29, 2001
HALLIBURTON COMPANY’S WELLSTREAM ANNOUNCES FIRST 16-INCH INTERNAL DIAMETER FLEXIBLE PIPE AWARD
DALLAS, Texas - Wellstream, a business unit of Halliburton Company's (NYSE: HAL) Energy Services Group, has been awarded a contract to supply one 8-in. internal diameter, and three 16-in. internal diameter dynamic topside jumpers to Single Buoy Moorings (SBM) for the Shell EA field development offshore Nigeria in West Africa.
The jumpers will connect the field's Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessel and a Soft Yoke Mooring Platform (SYMP). At 16-in. (internal diameter), these jumpers will become the largest diameter flexible pipes yet to be produced by Wellstream at their state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, for delivery in June 2002. The jumpers have been designed to withstand the severe operational conditions imposed by close proximity to the flare stack and degradation from prolonged exposure to Ultra Violet radiation.
Edgar Ortiz, president and chief executive officer, Halliburton's Energy Services Group, said, "This is a major achievement, greatly expanding Wellstream's product and capability envelope."
Halliburton Company, founded in 1919, is the world's largest provider of products and services to the petroleum and energy industries. The company serves its customers with a broad range of products and services through its Energy Services Group and Engineering and Construction Group business segments.
