Subsea7 has received a large variation order from Turkish Petroleum Offshore Technology Center AS (TP-OTC) tied to the Sakarya field development in the Black Sea, offshore Türkiye.

The award extends the contract announced on 27 August 2025 for Sakarya Phase 3 and covers the tie-in of the recently discovered Goktepe field to the Phase 3 floating production unit.

The scope includes engineering, procurement, construction and installation (EPCI) of about 20 km of flexibles, 120 km of umbilicals, a rigid production riser and related subsea equipment, in water depths of 2,200 m. Project management and engineering will be coordinated through Subsea7’s Istanbul office, with offshore activities expected in 2027 and 2028.

David Bertin, Senior Vice President, Global Project Centre – East at Subsea7, said the Goktepe development will support increased production through Sakarya Phase 3 facilities and contribute to Türkiye’s gas needs. Hulya Ozgur, Business Unit Director at Subsea7 Türkiye, said the company looks forward to continuing its long-term relationship with TP-OTC.
