"MADE IN THE USA " (from ODIM's internal magazine) (Look on Page 10) Odim is a big player on seismic/deepwater equipment
"The streamer winches, spoolers, and the ancillary equipment were all manufactured in the USA by ODIM’s co-operating partners in Houston and Galveston in Texas. Some of the equipment is made by G&M Welding, a company ODIM has worked with for 15 years, while other parts are made by a new co-operating partner, Deep Down. On arrival at Flesland Airport in Bergen, the equipment was transported by sea to the shipyard, Båtbygg, at Måløy, where two installation specialists from ODIM are currently installing the equipment on board the “Viking Poseidon”. We knew this from filings last year. http://www.odim.com/Files/Odimposten/ODIMPOSTEN_10_ENG.pdf
Other important Company highlights include expansion into the wireline market with the overhaul of wireline trucks for Diamondback, support of the first synthetic rope heave-compensated winch in the Gulf of Mexico for ODIM, AS, and Deep Down’s first contract to assist Technip in the Gulf of Mexico with the Bass Lite Field umbilical testing and flying lead support project.
“We are currently completing orders from ODIM, AS, for geophysical equipment including streamer winches, storage winches, level wind assemblies, and overboard sheaves.

support of the first synthetic rope heave-compensated winch in the Gulf of Mexico for ODIM, AS
The Independence Hub project in the Gulf of Mexico for Anadarko and Dominion has seen Subsea 7 achieve the world’s deepest installation of an umbilical and the deepest installation of a ‘Q’ Tree using the fibre rope deployment system developed by Subsea 7 and ODIM. Both firsts were achieved in water depths of 2,750 meters. The work was carried out by Subsea 7’s construction vessel the Toisa Perseus. See page 3 for further detail of the fibre rope deployment system technology development programme.
