The Kaskida FPU comprises a single topside module supported by a four-column semi-submersible hull. It is supported by subsea production wells located in a water depth of some 6,000 feet.
Seatrium has been awarded a letter of intent (LOI) by BP Exploration & Production (BP) to conduct “certain early engineering works”. This is pending the finalisation of a definitive contract for engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning (EPC) work for BP’s Kaskida floating production unit (FPU) project in the US Gulf of Mexico.
The project is a greenfield development that’s located some 250 miles southwest of New Orleans in the Keathley Canyon area of the Gulf of Mexico.
