BP awards Angelin job to McDermott

Engineering company McDermott said it has been awarded a contract from BP Trinidad & Tobago for the Angelin gas field, located 40 kilometers off the east coast of Trinidad and Tobago.

The engineering, procurement, construction, installation and commissioning (EPCIC) follows the completion of the engineering contract, including pre-FEED, FEED, and pre-execution engineering contracts previously awarded by bpTT to McDermott for the initial design and execution planning of Angelin.

The Angelin project is a dry gas development within the northern Columbus Basin in 65 meters of water. The gas will be exported to the Beachfield/Atlantic LNG and the liquids to the Galeota terminal via a new 21 kilometer, 66 centimeters diameter export pipeline.

With a design throughput of 600 million standard cubic feet of gas per day, production will be exported through the pipeline to the Serrette facility and on to the nearby Cassia platform for processing.

Building off its pre-FEED and FEED work, McDermott will provide a turnkey EPCIC solution to design, procure, fabricate, transport, install and commission a six-slot wellhead platform and 66-centimeter subsea pipeline.

The 992-ton four-legged main pile jacket and 1,323-ton four-deck topside for the Angelin project will be constructed at the Altamira, Mexico fabrication facility.

The platform and pipeline are scheduled to be installed by McDermott’s DLV 2000.
