What happened
World Oil lists multiple offshore developments including a Baker Hughes subsea systems contract for Angola, a KONGSBERG underwater surveillance award, and delivery of a hybrid‑ready CSOV vessel. The Baker Hughes scope includes horizontal subsea trees, control modules and installation services with equipment deliveries beginning in 2027, making the item operationally real for procurement because it signals near‑term long‑lead orders and installation planning. Watch whether suppliers begin tightening quote windows or inserting staged‑mobilization terms as installation schedules firm up
