Nantes, France | Aug 4, 2026
Sercel announced today that it has been awarded a one-year contract by ExxonMobil Global Projects to deploy its Marlin solution to assist in the management of Simultaneous Operations (SIMOPS) on the Whiptail project, located in the Stabroek Block, offshore Guyana. The deployment of this software tool will support pipelay and mooring installation campaigns.
The Marlin platform offers an innovative suite of solutions for optimizing maritime operations. For SIMOPS, it delivers a live, time‑based geospatial view of concurrent offshore activities, providing teams with the vessel and asset awareness required to plan, coordinate, and execute operations safely in high‑activity environments. The tool includes full-system configuration, onboarding, operational reviews, and 24/7 operational support.
Jérôme Denigot, CEO, Sercel, said: “With offshore activity accelerating across Latin America, the Middle East, Southeast Asia and West Africa, our Marlin field-proven SIMOPS solution enables operators to better manage their most complex offshore developments.”
