Wellstream Holdings PLC (LSE: WSM) said it has delivered strong operational performance since its last trading statement in May, adding trading remains broadly in line with the board's expectations.

The designer and manufacturer of flexible risers and flowlines for the oil and gas industry added the Pyrenees project for BHP Billiton (LSE: BLT; NYSE, ASX: BHP)  is progressing well, with final pipe deliveries complete, and Seastream's offshore installation work is expected to be completed before year-end. Seastream is the group’s joint venture with Sea Trucks Group.
