Jumbo has been awarded the installation contract for the Shell deep-water Vito development in the US Gulf of Mexico.
The Vito development is located in the Mississippi Canyon, about 150 miles south of New Orleans, Louisiana in a water depth of more than 1,219 metres.
Jumbo Offshore Vice President Roddy Lafontaine said the installation contract involves the initial pre-lay of the mooring system and the subsequent tow and hook-up of the floating production and storage unit (FPS).
The Vito development is owned by Shell Offshore (63.1 per cent) and Statoil USA (36.8 per cent).
