    CALGARY, Canada – Husky Energy has started the process of suspending major construction activities related to the platform-based West White Rose development offshore Newfoundland and Labrador.

    The company said its goal was to prevent the transmission of the COVID-19 virus among its personnel employees, contractors, and the wider community.

    Husky is working with its contractors to safely suspend all activities, and to demobilize and secure its construction sites.

    Production continues from the White Rose field and its satellite extensions, 350 km (217 mi) offshore, with workforce control measures introduced to ensure continued safe operations on the SeaRose FPSO.
