SLB OneSubsea has been awarded two large engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contracts by Thailand’s PTT Exploration and Production Public Company Limited (PTTEP) for an expansion project of two fields offshore Malaysia.
Under the contracts, SLB OneSubsea will deliver subsea production systems for the Alum, Bemban, and Permai deepwater gas fields located in Block H, as well as for the Kikeh field, Malaysia’s first deepwater oil project. The EPC scope also includes horizontal subsea trees, umbilicals, control systems, and associated services.
“We are proud to continue our long-standing relationship with PTTEP, which has seen the delivery of more than 50 systems over the past 20 years,” Mads Hjelmeland, CEO of SLB OneSubsea, said in the announcement on 30 October. “By leveraging our experience in complex deepwater environments and adopting a highly collaborative, early engagement process with our clients, we will help PTTEP unlock maximum value from these projects.”
The Block H gas development began producing natural gas from the Rotan and Buluh fields in February 2021, while the Kikeh oil and gas field has been in production since 2007. The fields are in water depths ranging between 1,100 and 1,300 m.
SLB OneSubsea is a joint venture among SLB, Aker Solutions, and Subsea7, with dual headquarters in Oslo and Houston. It employs more than 10,000 people worldwide.
