Petronas lets contract for natural gas development offshore Brunei

Petronas Carigali Brunei Ltd. has let a subsea contract to McDermott for engineering, procurement, construction, installation, and commissioning (EPCIC) of a conventional natural gas development project offshore Brunei Darussalam.

The award follows McDermott's completion of front-end engineering design (FEED), engineering optimization and readiness planning for the project.

Under the contract scope, McDermott will provide EPCIC services for a subsea production system and associated infrastructure, including umbilicals, risers, and flowlines, which will connect six wells to a floating production unit (FPU) for natural gas recovery.

McDermott also will deliver EPCIC services for a gas export pipeline that will supply feedstock to Brunei's LNG sector.

The gas field is expected to provide a long-term supply of natural gas, supporting Brunei's domestic energy needs and LNG export commitments.
