JX Nippon Oil and Gas Exploration (Malaysia) has awarded Technip a subsea contract for the Layang field, Block SK10, offshore Sarawak, Malaysia.
The contract covers the engineering, procurement, fabrication, installation and commissioning of three flexible pipes totaling 9.9km. The flexible pipes consist of two production risers and flowlines and one gas export riser and flowline, connecting shallow water platforms to a new floating production, storage and offloading vessel (FPSO).
Technip’s operating center in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, will execute the contract, while the flexible flowlines will be produced in Asiaflex Products, Technip’s manufacturing facility in Tanjung Langsat, Johor, Malaysia.
The installation campaign will use the Deep Orient and the project, in 85m water depth, is scheduled to be completed in the second half of 2016.
The FPSO Layang, formerly Deep Producer 1, is contracted to JX Nippon Oil & Gas Exploration (Malaysia) and will operate at the Layang field.
KK Lim, President of Technip in Asia Pacific, said: "We are delighted to work with JX Nippon Oil and Gas Exploration and its main partner Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd (PCSB) on this project which is awarded under the 'Flexible Pipes Framework Agreement' signed with PCSB last year. It demonstrates the competitiveness of our flexible pipe technology for shallow water developments and the advantages of our unique subsea integrated approach as a one stop solution for cost-effective field developments."
