Marine Platforms Completes Subsea Hydraulic Leak Investigation and Intervention Campaign for ESSO under SNEPCo Farm-Out Agreement

Lagos, Nigeria – May 2025 – Marine Platforms Limited (MPL), a leading indigenous oilfield marine and subsea solutions provider, is pleased to announce the successful completion of a comprehensive deepwater hydraulic leak inspection and intervention campaign on the ERHA Field Development under a Farm-Out Assignment Agreement between ESSO Exploration and Production Nigeria Limited (ESSO), Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Company (SNEPCo), and MPL.

Project Overview
The operations were executed using Work-Class ROV technology at water depths exceeding 1,000 meters, targeting identified anomalies across critical subsea infrastructure including Christmas Trees (XTs), Subsea Distribution Units (SDUs), and Umbilical Termination Assemblies (UTAs). The primary objectives focused on hydraulic integrity validation, leak mitigation, and assurance of subsea asset operability to ensure uninterrupted production.

Scope of Work Executed
Marine Platforms deployed its ROV systems to conduct a comprehensive sequence of inspections, interventions, and valve testing operations across five subsea locations (DCW, DCE, DCN, DC4, and DC2). The campaign successfully identified and addressed various anomalies including active hydraulic leaks, degraded valve seals, material deposits, and methanol discharge under live production conditions.

These operations reaffirm MPL’s commitment to subsea asset integrity, proactive risk mitigation, and rapid intervention capabilities, ensuring the sustained reliability of client production systems while upholding the highest safety and environmental standards.
