WGK will support Tullow Ghana and its partners through the execution phase of the project by providing subsea, umbilical, risers and flowlines engineering services.

"We will be focused on doing everything we can to help Tullow and its partners achieve first oil in a safe and timely fashion."

The deal requires WGK to provide Tullow with project engineering resources, specialist technical support and technical assurance services across the Surf implementation work scope through to first oil.

The TEN oil fields are located in the Deepwater Tano area, offshore Ghana, approximately 30km from the existing Jubilee field.

The TEN fields lie in the deep-water Tano Block, approximately 60km offshore Ghana. The development includes the drilling and completion of up to 24 development wells, which will be linked via subsea infrastructure to a floating production, storage and offloading vessel (FPSO) that is currently under construction in Singapore.
