TDW aids Egypt gas line connections
05-06-2011
T.D. Williamson SA (TDW) announced that it has completed a subsea hot tap intervention operation to facilitate the successful tie-in of a new gas pipeline to an existing pipeline. The new pipeline forms part of the Burullus Gas Company's West Delta Deep Marine (WDDM) Phase VII development project in the Mediterranean Sea. The operation was carried out for Technip Norge AS on behalf of the Burullus Gas Company, which required a tie-in of the new 36-inch gas export pipeline to an existing 26-inch gas export pipeline. TDW's primary objective was to facilitate the tie-in program without shutting down production.
