Petronas' natural gas development project offshore Brunei Darussalam will see engineering, procurement, construction, installation and commissioning (EPCIC) work by McDermott.
A subsea contract between Petronas and McDermott, this follows front-end engineering design, engineering optimisation and readiness planning delivery for the project, also by McDermott.
A significant conventional gas project from Brunei, the latest contract will require McDermott to support the development of a subsea production system and associated infrastructure. The company will be delivering umbilicals, risers and flowlines, which will connect six wells to a floating production unit for natural gas recovery. It will also cover EPCIC services for a gas export pipeline that will supply feedstock to Brunei's liquefied natural gas (LNG) sector.
"Transitioning from FEED to a full EPCIC award underscores McDermott's engineering excellence and proven ability to deliver complex subsea projects across the region," said Mahesh Swaminathan, McDermott's Senior Vice President, Subsea and Floating Facilities. "It also reinforces McDermott's collaborative approach in working with customers to drive engineering value. We look forward to continuing our collaboration with PETRONAS Carigali Brunei and its partners to advance this project safely and efficiently."
Project management will be led from McDermott's engineering center of excellence in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, supported by teams across other McDermott offices and project sites.
The Brunei gas development project aims to deliver a long-term solution for natural gas supply, covering the region's domestic energy needs and LNG export commitments.
