An advanced intervention winch system developed by Protea for Helix Well Ops UK Limited (Well Ops) has successfully completed initial operations off West Africa.

The system comprising five winches, active heave compensators and power and control equipment was installed as an upgrade package to the existing well intervention tower on the Skandi Constructor.

“The winches are to allow the successful deployment and operation of guide wires and pod lines for well intervention in up to 1500m of water,” said Tomasz Paskiewicz, CEO of Protea. “To successfully deploy, attach and maintain these connections to subsea well heads, precise position control, accurate heave compensation and reliable constant tension systems are key.”
