Hatraco was asked to send a Team of Engineers out to Singapore for the final commissioning of the 4 hydraulic starting systems on board of the BW Opal FPSO. Our engineers have been on board for 5 days and succeeded to do the commissioning, inspection and related testing. The systems are ready, functional and fully standby.

We wish the BW Opal many safe journeys.
