The contract for equipment supply was awarded in January 2018, and the first campaign kicked off in May.

There were four platforms during first campaign, which concluded ahead of schedule in August, and six platforms during a second ongoing campaign.

Internal and external dredging tools, diamond wire cutting tools and internal cutting tools based on abrasive water jet technology, operating at 1,500 bar, were provided for the project along with skilled operators to support the operation.
