It won additional work for Petrobras and SOFEC Inc.

Keppel Offshore & Marine (Keppel O&M) bagged projects from repeat customers Petrobras and SOFEC Inc. (SOFEC) with a total value of $130m.

According to a press release, the projects were bagged by its two wholly-owned subsidiaries Keppel FELS Brasil S.A. and Keppel Shipyard Ltd (Keppel Shipyard).

Keppel FELS Brasil’s BrasFELS shipyard has secured hull carry over work for the Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) unit P-69 from Tupi BV, a consortium represented by Petrobras.

The additional work scope on P-69 includes the installation of equipment and cables for the hull as well as the commissioning of marine systems.

BrasFELS was initially contracted to undertake the fabrication, integration, testing, and commissioning of the topside modules for P-69.

P-69 is scheduled to depart BrasFELS in 2018 for the Santos Basin pre-salt region. When delivered, it will have a production capacity of 150,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd) and 6 million cubic meters of gas per day. It will also have a storage capacity of 1.6 million barrels of oil.

Meanwhile, Keppel Shipyard’s contract from SOFEC is for the fabrication of a Turret Mooring system for a newbuild Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) vessel bound for the Coral South FLNG Project in offshore Mozambique.

Fabrication is scheduled to commence in the first quarter of 2018 with delivery of the turret components expected in the first quarter of 2020.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
