\"moho<\/a>\u00a0In January 2015, Resinex supplied to Technip France 152 floats, specifically designed and produced in order\u00a0to accelerate and optimize \u00a0the beach pool operations of the 16″ export flowline in the Moho North Field in the Congolese offshore. \"moho_nord_map\"<\/a>
\nThe floats, 65 pcs with a net buoyancy<\/strong> of 2.5 T and 87 pcs with a net buoyancy of 2 T, shall contribute to reduce the pulling force during flowline installation. Maximum operational depth is 20 metres. Besides the floats, Resinex also provided 304 fastening sets and 152 release systems of the floats from the pipeline.
\nThe test package required by Technip<\/strong> was intensive. Hydrostatic tests, fit up tests (on the pipe), release tests (from the pipe) and impact tests, all successfully performed at Resinex Marine Research Centre in Adro (BS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The $10bn Moho Nord Subsea<\/strong> project is located around 75 km off the coast of Pointe Noire \u00a0in the Republic of Congo.
\nIt is the first deepwater offshore project<\/strong> in Congo at water depths ranging between 650 and 1100 m. Moho Nord is the latest project being developed in the Moho-Bilondo License which is owned 53.5% by its operator \u00a0Total E&P Congo, a subsidiary of Total. \u00a0Chevron and the Congolese state-owned oil company SNPC hold 31.5% and 15% interest respectively in the licence area. In the field, a new Floating Production Unit (FPU) will be installed. \u00a0This FPU will have a capacity to process 100.000 barrels of oil or equivalent per day. FPU output will be sent to the onshore base of Djeno through a pipeline.
\nThe final configuration will have 50 subsea<\/strong> structures, 230 km of rigid pipeline and 23 km of flexible pipeline. For the installation, Technip will use its own vessel G1200. Installation operations are scheduled for November 2015.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
