The Offshore Cape Three Points (OCTP) project is a comprehensive endeavor focused on developing oil and natural gas reserves, specifically to meet the energy needs of Sub-Saharan Africa. Positioned off Ghana’s western coast, OCTP operates subsea wells and systems linked to the John Agyekum Kufuor Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) unit. In 2020, OCTP contributed over half of Ghana’s gas supply for thermal power generation.

The Saipem 7000 is a semi-submersible crane and pipelaying vessel operating within the Saipem fleet. The unit is designed to support complex offshore projects through heavy-lift operations, offshore structure installation, subsea works and J-lay pipelaying activities. Equipped with an advanced dynamic positioning system, two main cranes with a lifting capacity of up to 14,000 t in tandem lift, and pipelaying capability in water depths exceeding 2,000 m, the Saipem 7000 is deployed on conventional, deepwater and ultra-deepwater offshore projects worldwide.

Castoro 10, located in the North Sea at the Mekjarvik port in Norway, is a shallow-water pipelay and trenching barge designed for offshore pipeline installation in coastal and nearshore environments. Operating in S-lay mode, it is capable of installing pipelines up to 60 inches in diameter and is equipped with an automated welding system, high-capacity tensioners, and a precision anchor mooring system to ensure safe and efficient offshore operations.
