The CLOV Phase 3 Project is an offshore deepwater oil field development in Block 17, approximately 140 km off the Angolan coast. Operated by TotalEnergies, the project includes the installation of a four-well subsea production system connected to the existing CLOV floating production facility. The development is intended to increase oil output by approximately 30,000 barrels per day while maximizing the use of existing offshore infrastructure.

The SAIPEM 3000 is a self-propelled mono-hull DP derrick crane vessel operating within the Saipem fleet. Designed to perform major offshore operations, the unit supports heavy-lift activities, offshore structure installation, subsea construction works and ROV-assisted operations. Equipped with a fully redundant DP Class 3 dynamic positioning system and a main crane with a lifting capacity of up to 2,177 t, the vessel is deployed on complex offshore projects worldwide.
