Helix picks up SE Asia job

Houston-based Helix Energy Solutions has been awarded a $160 million, three-year contract by an unnamed oil company in South East Asia to provide a multipurpose vessel for offshore inspection, repair and maintenance operations.

Helix's wholly owned subsidiary Canyon Offshore will provide the M/V Olympic Canyon DP II vessel to begin work in April 2008 to support numerous offshore projects, said Helix.
