Located 130 kilometers northwest of Cuidad del Carmen, Ayatsil was the largest oil and gas discovery made by Pemex at the end of 2008. The Ayatsil L-16 project was completed onboard the Sapura 3500, an offshore construction vessel capable of pipe laying in both deep and shallow waters.
The pipeline welding scope of 20km of 30’’ x 0.938’’ was successfully completed with an excellent 0.8% repair rate, and a peak performance of 151 welds per day thanks to the excellent teamwork between SapuraEnergy and Serimax.
