Fugro Gets Marine Survey Job at Indonesia’s LNG and CCS Scheme
INPEX Masela (INPEX), a subsidiary of INPEX Corporation, has awarded Fugro a significant marine survey contract for the Abadi liquefied natural gas (LNG) project in Indonesia.Fugro will perform geophysical and geotechnical surveys needed to support front-end engineering design for offshore production facilities, the subsea pipeline to the onshore LNG terminal and CO2 injection infrastructure.Geo-data will be acquired using Fugro’s deepwater autonomous underwater vehicle Echo Surveyor 8 and a robotic seafloor drill, deployed from Indonesian support vessels.Fieldwork is expected to start in the
McDermott and Baker Hughes Install Subsea Infrastructure at Ichthys Field
Engineering company McDermott and Baker Hughes have completed the installation of subsea infrastructure at the Ichthys liquefied natural gas (LNG) field in northern Australia.The work was conducted for Inpex as part of the contract McDermott and Baker Hughes secured in 2019.The scope of the contract included engineering, procurement, construction and installation (EPCI) of umbilicals, risers and flowlines (URF), a subsea production system comprised of a new 7-inch vertical Christmas tree (VXT) system, all forming a subsea well gathering system (GS4) tied back to the existing Ichthys Explorer central
Longitude Gets Subsea Engineering Job on Egypt’s Burullus Gas Field
90 kilometers offshore Egypt, on the north-western part of the Nile Delta.Significant gas volumes have been discovered in numerous fields and reservoirs. These reservoirs have been progressively developed to maintain current and future gas supplies to the Egyptian domestic market and the Egyptian Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) plant.Burullus Gas Company is continuing the expansion of the WDDM facilities through the current phase of the development known as WDDM Phase-X.Phase-X includes three subsea wells being brought online to supplement the existing 70 wells currently in production, at water depth ranging
The Curious Case of the 1,200 MW Transmission Size “Limit” in New England
the present day, resources like the Phase II HVDC line from Canada to the United States that can operate at up to 2,000 MW, the Boston-based Mystic Generating Station units 8 and 9, which collectively are a 1,600 MW single source loss due to a common natural gas fuel source issue from an adjacent liquefied natural gas gasification facility, and the region’s two remaining nuclear plants, Seabrook in New Hampshire and Millstone in Connecticut, can all operate above 1,200 MW and up to their limits as long as system generation dispatch and resulting power flows on the New York and PJM systems allow.
Operators to Inspect Finland-Estonia Gas Pipeline for Possible Leak
of the incident, Gasgrid said.The pipeline opened in December 2019 to help integrate gas markets in the region, giving Finland and the Baltic nations of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania more flexibility of supply.Finland last year leased a floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) to receive liquefied natural gas (LNG), replacing supplies from Russia which were cut in the wake of Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.Situated at Inkoo, the Exemplar FSRU vessel has supplied gas to Estonia via the Balticconnector.Elering said there was no shortage of gas supply in Estonia as its customers were receiving
Halliburton, Baker Hughes Beat Profit Estimates as International Demand Offsets Weak N. America
$3.1 billion from first quarter. Halliburton beat analysts' estimate by 2 cents at 77 cents per share for the three months ended June 30, while Baker Hughes topped estimates by 6 cents per share at 39 cents, according to Refinitiv data. Baker Hughes, a major equipment supplier for liquefied natural gas projects, said it expects the LNG market to exceed 65 million tons per annum (MTPA) of final investment decisions this year and next, on solid demand growth led by Europe and Asia.

McDermott Bags Major Subsea Pipeline, Cable Order in Qatar
defines a major contract as between $750 million and $1.5 billion.The COMP1 project is part of the NFPS Offshore Compression Project involving the installation of new assets in Qatar's North Field, including compression complexes at seven locations to sustain gas supply to the existing liquefied natural gas (LNG) production trains into the future.The contract award to McDermott follows the North Field Expansion Project (NFXP) contract awarded to McDermott in 2022, which is currently under execution and McDermott says, "remains one of the largest contracts McDermott has been awarded in its
Report: Russia to Mothball Damaged Nord Stream Gas Pipelines
.Another source familiar with the plans confirmed that the stakeholders are considering conservation.This would most likely mean sealing the ruptured ends and putting a coating into the pipes to prevent further corrosion from seawater.One of the Russian sources said that, if the seaborne liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the United States that Europe is using to offset some of its Russian supplies became much more expensive, Europe might again be ready to buy more from Russia.Moscow's Energy Ministry referred questions to the pipeline operators, but neither they nor Gazprom replied to requests
