EnerMech Lands $50m of Caspian Contracts
Tuesday 4 April 2017
Mechanical services player EnerMech has landed work in the Caspian region with several “major groups” operating in the area.
The Aberdeen-based company said on Monday that the deals are worth a total of £40 million ($50 million).
Under a three-year agreement, EnerMech will manage supermajor BP’s crane operation, maintenance and inspection requirements in Azerbaijan.
The contract covers assets spread over seven platforms, includes 12 offshore pedestal cranes, and will see EnerMech increase its Azerbaijani workforce from its current level of 80% to 100% within a three-month period, the company said.
In a second deal, the Amec Tekfen Azfen (ATA) consortium in Azerbaijan commissioned EnerMech to provide a full range of hydrotesting, flange management, camera inspection and enhanced water blasting services on two platforms which are part of the giant Shah Deniz 2 gas condensate field.
A separate project will see EnerMech for the first time provide ultra-high pressure tubing installation, pressure testing and flushing of tubing.
Also at the ATA site, EnerMech have been awarded their first direct contract with BP for the provision of nitrogen/helium leak detection and pre-engineering is ongoing in London.
EnerMech has also been commissioned by BOS Shelf to provide all jacket riser testing, subsea safety isolation valves and subsea spool testing at its Baku deep-water jackets factory and will also carry out hydro testing, riser pigging and bolt tensioning work.
Last month, the engineering group was awarded a pre-commissioning subcontract by Technip Oceania, part of TechnipFMC, on the Prelude floating liquefied natural gas project, off Western Australia.
