The ROV services contract has a three-year term and offshore works will start when the rig arrives in Australia during 2009. The estimated project value is in excess of $A12 million.
The work scope includes the provision of a new-build Centurion QX ROV that will be deployed using a heavy-weather launch system from onboard the B281 which is an ultra-deepwater development semi-submersible. The B281 is the second in a series of three rigs under currently construction for Maersk in Singapore.
