Fossil Energy – Trion Field
Australia’s Woodside Energy has awarded a contract to Subsea 7 for subsea installation services for the Trion development offshore Mexico.
The scope of the contract for Subsea 7 includes engineering, construction, and installation of the subsea umbilicals, risers, and flowlines, as well as the associated subsea architecture.
The project, which Woodside and Pemex are developing in partnership, involves a wet tree subsea system connected to an infield floating production unit (FPU).
The field is located approximately 30 kilometers south of the U.S. / Mexico border and 180 kilometers away from the Mexican coastline, at a water depth of 2,600 meters.
Subsea 7 will start management and engineering for the project immediately from its offices in the U.S. and Mexico, with offshore activities expected to take place between 2026 and 2027.
Trion field will be developed through a floating production unit (FPU) with an oil production capacity of 100,000 barrels per day.
The first oil is targeted for 2028.
