Fairmount Marine, Rotterdam, has moved the Sevan Louisiana ultradeepwater rig from Singapore to Curacao. Towed by the Tug Fairmount Sherpa, the rig traveled 11,500 miles via Cape Hope with stops to take bunkers and for crew changes in Port Louis, Mauritius, Walvis Bay, Namibia, and Port of Spain, Trinidad.
The self-propelled rig, equipped with eight thrusters, can accommodate up to 150 crew members. After arrival in Curacao, the Fairmount Sherpa performed multiple cargo runs for the Sevan Louisiana. The rig will leave Curacao on her own thrusters for her next job in the Gulf of Mexico.
Sevan Louisiana was built last year at the Cosco shipyard in Nantong, China, for UK-based Seadrill Ltd. Photo from Fairmount Marine.
