Deep Down get orders for subsea deployment baskets
2008.09.10 - Contracts


Deep Down today announced orders for its patent pending SDB (Subsea Deployment Basket) systems totaling $1,000,000. These systems will be used to install hydraulic steel tube flying leads offshore West Africa and to install flexible pipe gas lift jumpers offshore Brazil. These systems are expected to be delivered in October of this year.

Deep Down's patent pending SDB System utilizes a unique mudmat and cartridge layout that allows for installation of hydraulic flying leads, electric flying leads, gas lift jumpers and other subsea equipment from the seabed, thereby eliminating the need for expensive, surface-based installation equipment. The SDB System is particularly attractive for installations in remote locations where vessel availability may be limited or in cases where there are multiple flying leads or jumpers to install.

Deep Down Expands ROV Fleet Through Mako Technologies

HOUSTON, Oct 13, 2008 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Deep Down, Inc. (DPDW) today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mako Technologies, LLC ("Mako") is expanding its fleet of Remotely Operated Vehicles ("ROVs"). Mako recently took delivery of its fifth ROV, a Seaeye FALCON, and has placed an order to purchase a Sub-Atlantic SUPER MOHAWK for delivery in the fourth quarter.

The Super Mohawk can carry out many of the tasks currently being performed by heavy, work-class vehicles. The rigid open-frame design provides an abundance of space and the generous payload capability provides a versatile solution for the installation of manipulators, sensors, and additional equipment.

"Presently, our entire ROV fleet, including our newly acquired FALCON, are offshore working," stated Bryce Merrill, Mako's Director of Subsea Services. "With the damage associated with Hurricanes Gustav and Ike, demand for ROV services has been extremely high. We have our two LYNX ROVs demobilizing from a successful project in Trinidad and as soon as they get back to our base and inspected, they will immediately be deployed into the Gulf of Mexico to help our clients assess the extent of the damage to the offshore infrastructure.

"The utilization rate for our offshore equipment, including ROVs, is at the highest levels since Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. The latest MMS damage assessment report indicates that the number of platforms destroyed by the 2008 Hurricanes is at 49, which is more than were destroyed by Hurricane Katrina," Merrill concluded. "The expansion of Mako's fleet of ROVs supports our strategy to continue to invest in growing the capabilities of all our companies to meet the demands of the market. These investments will enhance the financial performance of the company and bring value to our shareholders," said Robert E. Chamberlain, Jr., Deep Down's chairman and chief acquisition officer.

Deep Down Expanding Buoyancy Facilities to Serve Growing Deepwater Market

Jan 26, 2009 9:26:00 AM

Jan. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Deep Down, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: DPDW) today announced expansion plans of its buoyancy manufacturing facility and flotation testing services in response to recent orders and anticipated demand for its drilling riser buoyancy system used in ultra-deepwater production. The facility's expansion effectively doubles its buoyancy manufacturing capacity.

Deep Down acquired the Biddeford, Maine based facility, Flotation Technologies, Inc., in June of 2008 in conjunction with its continuing strategy to expand services in the deepwater and ultra-deepwater drilling and production markets. Subsequently, the Company announced an $11 million order for its deepwater drilling riser buoyancy modules to be installed on the Delba III semisubmersible drilling rig, which has a long-term contract to drill in Brazilian waters.

"Deep Down's primary opportunities are in the growing deepwater drilling and production services sector," commented Ronald E. Smith, Deep Down's president and chief executive officer. "To ensure our Company is prepared to meet demand, we have committed over $2 million to expand production and testing service capabilities. We have undertaken this expansion to advance Deep Down's strategy to become a leader within the deepwater buoyancy marketplace."

Deep Down's newly engineered drilling riser buoyancy solution, with its patent-pending CoreTec(TM) syntactic foam buoyancy technology, has solved many difficulties over current buoyancy products because it is inherently stronger at depth and provides a longer service life, which ultimately translates into a much more cost-effective drill riser buoyancy solution.

Ground has already been broken on the first phase of the expansion project, with construction to improve the Maine facility's shipping access and operational functionality. The second phase of the project, which includes the Maine facility's expansion and a Texas-based testing service capability, is slated to begin later this quarter.

About Deep Down, Inc.

Deep Down, Inc. is an oilfield services company serving the worldwide offshore exploration and production industry. Deep Down's proven services and technological solutions include distribution system installation support and engineering services, umbilical terminations, loose-tube steel flying leads, distributed and drill riser buoyancy, ROVs and ROV tooling, as well as marine vessel automation, control, and ballast systems.
