Offshore suction installation services for Energean in the Karish field

Together, and on behalf of Jumbo Maritime, SPT Offshore successfully completed the offshore suction installation services of 14 suction piles in the Karish field offshore Israel. The suction piles, that will be used for the mooring of the Karish FPSO, were installed using the new developed SAPS-008 system at a water depth of 1760m.

SPT Offshore developed a new deep-water suction pump, the SAPS-008, for installing suction piles in water depths up to 3,000m. The pump unit is the first of its kind to have an integrated up-end and lift appliance certified for suction piles up to 300 tons.
