ENI Okono Okpoho - Update
4 System integration, testing, installation assistance, service The first two (2) systems were shipped twenty-one (21) weeks
and maintenance from contract award. In order to meet the very ambitious project
schedule, ENI requested FMC Technologies to air freight the first
two (2) completion systems. A Russian Antonov aircraft was
chartered, and equipment delivery was completed in less than 24
hours, compared to the five (5) weeks it normally takes by sea
freight.
The first two (2) wells were drilled using non-FMC wellheads with
permanent guide bases. Wells 3 and 4 required a rigid mudline
conversion system as the wells had been temporarily abandoned
with only 30” of casing protruding from the mudline. For
operational reasons, the completions had to be performed from a
semi-submersible rig, an operation normally performed by a jack-
up rig.
