Q7000


The Helix Q7000, a purpose-built DP3 semisubmersible vessel built to perform in harsh environments such as the North Sea, enables riser-based subsea well intervention and decommissioning operations.

With a proven track record operating in West Africa and Australasia, the Q7000 provides value through integrated solutions with reduced interfaces, time, and optimized crew sizes.

The Q7000 performs through riser subsea well intervention and decommissioning operations using the Helix-designed intervention riser system (IRS), which features a high-angle disconnect capability.

With her open deck plan and triaxial configuration, the vessel is capable of a wide range of production enhancement operations in addition to well-cleanup and field development support. It is equally optimized for well decommissioning activities, including well suspension, tubing removal, tree recovery, and seafloor clearance.

The Q7000 features a variable deck load capacity of about 3,000 metric tons in addition to well intervention and service fluids. A 600-metric-ton well intervention tower with active and passive heave compensation is on the upper deck. The large flush deck features a skidding system for well intervention support equipment and tubular storage.

 An Intervention Tension Frame and the associated skidding system eliminate the need for man-riding, reduce over-the-deck crane lifts, and optimize changeouts between services. It has below deck twin work-class ROV systems, bulk fluids storage and pumping systems.
