As part of a major turret repair campaign, the client required a high-performing execution team to deliver complex modifications to production systems aboard a deepwater FPSO. The challenge involved coordinating multiple brownfield work scopes under live operating conditions, while planning critical system shutdowns and managing interface complexity—without compromising on safety, schedule, or budget.

Project Manager, Interface Managers, Cost & Schedule Leads, Construction Managers, and Superintendents.
The team led the end-to-end planning and delivery of multiple brownfield scopes across several construction cycles.
Oversaw critical shutdowns to facilitate high-priority system upgrades.
