Drydocks World wins Bluewater FPSO projects
Drydocks World has won two contracts with Bluewater Energy Services for the FPSO Aoka Mizu.

The UAE shipyard is undertaking a repair, life extension and upgrade project on the FPSO Aoka Mizu, as well as the fabrication of an over 1,000 tonne turret bouy for the vessel.

The FPSO will be deployed in the Lancaster Field West of the Shetlands after completion by Bluewater for end client Hurricane Energy.

“We have selected Drydocks World on the basis of their good track record, and the depth of understanding of the task ahead of them, in combination with the quality of their facilities, and convincing project organisation,” said Hugo Heerema president and ceo of Bluewater.

“This is the first time we are working with Bluewater Energy and Hurricane Energy; we look forward to building strong partnerships for future collaboration, demonstrating the progressive approach and integrated solutions our Dubai yard has to offer,” commented Mohammad Rizal, coo of Drydocks World.
