Heerema Fabrication Group has secured a contract for procurement and construction of the Peregrino II Jacket from South Atlantic Holding on behalf of the Statoil Peregrino II project.
Discovered in 1994, the Peregrino field is located in the south and south-west section of Campos Basin, 85km from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Heerema Fabrication Group CEO Koos-Jan van Brouwershaven said: "We are delighted that we have been able to secure this contract.
"With the Valemon jacket, the Gina Krog jacket and the Oseberg Vestflanken 2 Unmanned Wellhead Platform, which we will deliver next month, we have a good track record with Statoil."
The Statoil-operated Peregrino field has two wellhead platforms and a floating production, storage and offloading unit (FPSO), which are connected with a system of pipelines, risers and cables.
As part of the Peregrino Phase II field development, a third wellhead platform will be constructed in the area, which is not accessible by the two platforms.
