Attached herewith as Exhibit 99.1 is a press release, dated April 8, 2011, whereby Subsea 7 S.A. announced the award of two SURF contracts with an approximate total value of $150 million from ConocoPhillips Skandinavia AS, on the Greater Ekofisk Area in the North Sea.





The first contract is for the engineering, procurement, fabrication, installation and hyperbaric weld tie-in of a new water injection line. The new line will be connected with inline Tee structure to an existing 24” water injection pipeline on the Eldfisk Field. The scope also includes umbilical and Host Protection Structure installation. Engineering will commence in the second half of 2011, with offshore operations primarily in 2012.





The second contract is for the engineering, procurement, installation and tie-in of spools, associated structures and production covers for the 24” and 30” oil and gas export pipelines to the new 2/7S platform on the Ekofisk Field. The scope also includes the re-routing of the 14” Embla production line to the new platform. Engineering will commence in the second half of 2011, with offshore operations in 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015.





The information set forth above and in the attached press release shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.





Certain statements set forth above and contained in the press release furnished pursuant to this Form 6-K may include “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These statements may be identified by the use of words like “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “forecast,” “project,” “will,” “should,” “seek,” and similar expressions.  These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to statements as to the value of the awarded contracts, statements as to the date of commencement and completion of each awarded contract and statements as to the scope and location of our work thereunder.  The forward-looking statements reflect our current views and assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties.  The following factors, and others which are discussed in our public filings and submissions with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, are among those that may cause actual and future results and trends to differ materially from our forward-looking statements: actions by regulatory authorities or other third parties; unanticipated costs and difficulties related to the integration of Acergy S.A. and Subsea 7 Inc. and our ability to achieve benefits therefrom; our ability to recover costs on significant projects; the general economic conditions and competition in the markets and businesses in which we operate; our relationship with significant clients; the outcome of legal and administrative proceedings or governmental enquiries; uncertainties inherent in operating internationally; the timely delivery of ships on order and the timely completion of ship conversion programs; the impact of laws and regulations; and operating hazards, including spills and environmental damage. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Given these factors, you should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements..
