Allseas’ Solitaire completed installation of the 90.3-km (56-mi), 30-in. and 24.in gas sales pipeline in water depths of up to 1,700 m (5,577 ft).
The full program included placement of a tie-in manifold structure in 72 m (236 ft) water depth.
On average, excluding the beach pull, the rate of laying was 4,578 m/d (15,019 ft/d).

Subsea manifold at Karish.
During 4Q, installation should get under way of the three sets of risers - 2 x10-in. and 1 x 16-in. - that will connect the three producing wells to the FPSO and then to the gas sales pipeline, finishing in 1Q 2021.
Currently the Karish development is around 80% complete, Energean said.
