Sembcorp Marine enters into contract with Bechtel

The agreement targets module assembly of the second LNG train. 

Sembcorp Marine announced, through its subsidiary, Sembcorp Marine Offshore Platforms Pte. Ltd., that the group has entered into a contract with Bechtel Overseas Corporation.

The agreement focuses on module assembly of the second LNG train to be assembled at the Pluto LNG project. Both entities are set to form a management team to oversee the module assembly programme for Pluto Train 2, which is scheduled to be accomplished by 2024.

Pluto LNG is a single onshore LNG processing train situated on the Burrup Peninsula near Karratha, and currently processes gas from the Pluto and Xena offshore fields. Since its start-up in 2012, Woodside has operated the facility safely, with the construction of Pluto Train 2 aimed at expanding the current capacity by around five million tonnes per annum. 

“Sembcorp Marine is pleased to collaborate once again with Bechtel on an Australian LNG project. The Group looks forward to executing the project safely and efficiently and we thank Bechtel for their continued trust in our capabilities,” said Samuel Wong, Head of Offshore Platforms, Sembcorp Marine.

Previous collaborations between the two include the Australia Pacific LNG and Wheatstone LNG projects.

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.
