McDermott International, Inc. has been awarded a fast-track fabrication contract by PC Ketapang II Ltd., a subsidiary of Petronas. The contract is for the BTJT-A jacket, as part of the Bukit Tua development project in the Ketapang block off east Java, Indonesia.
McDermott will fabricate the four-leg 1100t wellhead jacket at the Batam Island fabrication facility in Indonesia.
“The timing of delivery for this fast-track project is critical,” says Hugh Cuthbertson, vice president and general manager, Asia Pacific. “We have already commenced fabrication activities as the jacket must be completed for installation before the start of the monsoon season.”
The project is expected to be complete by mid November 2014.
In July, Houston-based McDermott won a contract to provide transportation and installation services to Walter Oil & Gas Corp. for the Megalodon platform in the Gulf of Mexico.
