Technip, in a joint venture with Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering (MMHE) – a wholly owned subsidiary of Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering Holdings Berhad (MHB) – has received confirmation from PETRONAS Carigali for a substantial engineering, procurement, construction, installation and commissioning (EPCIC) contract for the development of two gas fields in Block SK316. Those fields are located approximately 180km North of Bintulu, Sarawak, at a water depth of 104m.
The Technip-MMHE joint venture had earlier participated in the front-end engineering design (FEED) competition with subsequent rollover to EPCIC execution.
The EPCIC contract includes a central processing platform and a bridge-linked wellhead platform, which will be constructed at MMHE’s fabrication yard at Pasir Gudang in Johor, Malaysia, as well as a 75km pipeline, which will be installed by one of Technip’s pipe-laying vessels.
