Technip, in a joint venture with Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering Sdn Bhd (MMHE)(1), has received confirmation from PETRONAS Carigali for a substantial(2) engineering, procurement, construction, installation and commissioning (EPCIC) contract for the development of two gas fields in Block SK316. Those fields are located approximately 180 kilometers North of Bintulu, Sarawak, at a water depth of 104 meters.

The Technip-MMHE joint venture had earlier participated in the front-end engineering design 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 75-kilometer pipeline, which will be installed by one of Technip’s pipe-laying vessels.
