Keppel wins new contracts worth $96m

Singapore’s Keppel Offshore & Marine has secured new projects via subsidiaries Keppel FELS Brasil and Keppel Shipyard from repeat customers worth a total of around S$130m ($96.22m).

Keppel FELS Brasil has secured hull carry over work for FPSO unit P-69 from Tupi, a consortium formed by Petrobras Netherlands, Shell and Petrogal Brasil. The additional work includes the installation of equipment and cables for the hull as well as the commissioning of marine systems.

Keppel Shipyard has won a contract from SOFEC for the fabrication of a turret mooring system for a newbuild FLNG vessel bound for the Coral South FLNG Project offshore Mozambique. Delivery of the turret components is scheduled for the first quarter of 2020.

Chris Ong, CEO of Keppel O&M, commented: “We are pleased that our repeat customers continue to choose us as their preferred partner for their FPSO projects. It is a testament to our proven track record and expertise in a comprehensive range of services and proprietary technology for production assets. We are committed to deliver innovative, reliable and value-added solutions for the industry.”
