Orlen, Grupa WB Collaborate to Improve Maritime Infrastructure Security
.They said the agreement also covers the implementation of innovative unmanned systems and advanced monitoring technologies, drawing on Grupa WB's expertise as a supplier of advanced defence solutions.In addition to its refineries, Orlen diversifies Poland's energy sources by importing liquefied natural gas through the Swinoujscie terminal and it is developing offshore wind farms in the Baltic Sea."Orlen has strategic significance not only for Poland but for the entire region," CEO Ireneusz Fafara said in the statement.(Reuters
Vallourec to Deliver Tubular Solution for Qatar’s Drilling ops
;s increasing drilling activity both onshore and offshore.Vallourec has a historical presence in Qatar where VAM connections are widely used by all operators.The contract aligns with recent announcements from Qatar-based companies to increase the country’s oil production by 19% and liquefied natural gas (LNG) production by 85% by 2030. Overall, LNG production will reach about 142 million tons per annum (MTPA).As such, these production increases will require additional drilling and infrastructure development, creating new opportunities for Vallourec in the next years.“Vallourec has
Terradepth Awarded 5-Year Contract For Offshore Energy Surveying
of Ocean Data as a Service (ODaaS), was awarded a five-year Master Services Agreement with a major offshore energy company. Terradepth will deliver autonomous hydrographic survey and data services at a fraction of the traditional hydrographic survey time and cost. The first project is for a liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminal in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region.The project leverages the company’s ODaaS vertically integrated solution, from robotic autonomous subsea data collection capability to delivery of processed data through the Absolute Ocean platform—a secure, cloud-native
Scana’s Seasystems Hooks Mooring Deal for FLNG Scheme
Scana-owned Seasystems has signed a contract for the delivery of mooring equipment to a floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) project, worth up to $6.7 million.The delivery consists of mooring equipment such as chain stoppers, chain handling systems, and winches, under a sizeable contract for the company, meaning its value is between $2.2 million and $6.7 million.For Seasystems, the project starts immediately and will be delivered in the fourth quarter of 2025.Seasystems has worked with the client since early 2023 to develop the mooring solution. The project has completed the Pre-FEED and FEED phases
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
