Baker Hughes wins Angola subsea equipment contract from Azule Energy
Baker Hughes (NASDAQ: BKR) announced it has received an award from Azule Energy to supply subsea production systems for the Greater PAJ development offshore Angola, according to a press release.
Under the agreement, Baker Hughes will provide deepwater horizontal tree systems, subsea control modules, intervention workover control systems, and associated connection, distribution, and topside equipment. The company will also supply integrated tooling and services to support installation, commissioning, and ongoing production from its facilities in Angola.
The horizontal tree systems are rated for operating pressures of up to 10,000 psi and water depths of up to 10,000 feet. Delivery of the subsea trees is expected to begin in 2027.
Amerino Gatti, Baker Hughes Executive Vice President of Oilfield Services and Equipment, said: "Ultra-deepwater developments demand unmatched reliability and performance to ensure that production is safe, efficient and sustained over the life of the field."
Baker Hughes said Angola is home to its largest subsea installed base in Sub-Saharan Africa. The company stated it will leverage its local supply chain in Angola to support the project.
