The project will consist of offshore logistics support for a 532km, $3.2bn deepwater gas pipeline, running between the Mnazi Bay gas field and the city of Dar es Salaam. Once completed, the pipeline is expected to supply the city’s power stations with 3,900 megawatts of generating capacity, and support economic growth and infrastructure projects in the region.
ISS will provide husbandry services for a custom-built pipelayer with a 1600t crane and accommodation for 230 construction workers, as well as crew logistics services such as crew visa and work permit formalities, and airport transfers to the vessels.
“We have built a reputation for effectively supporting one-of-a-kind offshore projects and were delighted to be approached by CPPB and Anglo Eastern,” says ISS Tanzania gm TS Mahesh. “Given our breadth of experience, we are able to support the project in a number of diverse areas. We look forward to working as partner on this project, which is due for completion in December 2014.”
