Keppel O&M inks joint venture agreement with Russia’s top oil company

A design and engineering centre will be established.

Keppel Offshore & Marine has inked a shareholders' agreement with Rosneft, Russia’s national oil company, to set up a Singapore-incorporated joint venture company. Keppel O&M and Rosneft will each have a 45% stake in the company, while the remaining 10% stake will be held by Norwegian drilling equipment firm, MHWirth.

The joint venture company will establish a wholly-owned Design and Engineering Centre (DEC) in the Russian Federation. Its main business activities will be the design and engineering of mobile offshore drilling units (MODUs) for shallow waters to cater to the region.

The initial projects undertaken by the DEC will be from Rosneft for design and engineering work related to shallow water platforms. It will also look to take on work from other Russian and international customers.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
