Fugro completes offshore works for EOWDC at Aberdeen Bay

Fugro has completed offshore works undertaken in preparation for full construction of the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre (EOWDC) at Aberdeen Bay, Scotland.
The geotechnical site investigation took place at 11 turbine locations to assess the seabed, with the data acquired being used to inform the final design and micro-siting of the turbine foundations. Full offshore construction is scheduled to start in late 2017 or early 2018, after an investment decision later this year.

Fugro’s dynamically-positioned 78-metre geotechnical drilling vessel, the Bucentaur, was mobilised to the EOWDC site, located about 2km to 5km off the coast of Aberdeen. The site investigation work was on behalf of Aberdeen Offshore Wind Farm Limited (AOWFL).

Dennis van den Bulk, Fugro’s Senior Project Manager described some of the details of the site investigation. “A two phased approach was adopted over a period of 11 days. During the first phase we conducted seabed CPTs and seismic CPTs down to refusal at each of the turbine locations, and in the second phase we drilled three boreholes,” he explained. “The offshore phase was completed safely, successfully and without any significant downtime, validating the solution.” The data and samples acquired during the field phase were transferred to Fugro’s Wallingford laboratory and offices for further analysis and reporting.

Vattenfall and Aberdeen Renewable Energy Group (AREG) are the partners behind AOWFL. The company is driving the project forward, reaffirming its commitment to seeing the much-needed industry scheme come to fruition. Widely recognised as a vital investment in Scotland’s renewables infrastructure, the EOWDC aims to establish a world-class hub of offshore wind know-how, technology and innovation, particularly during these challenging times for the North Sea oil and gas industry.

Andy Paine, head of UK offshore wind development for Vattenfall and project director for AOWFL, said, “The pioneering EOWDC will help establish the north east of Scotland as a global centre of innovation for the offshore wind industry. It is through test and demonstration of next generation products and services that offshore wind will become a low cost sector.”

The most established offshore shipyard in the Latin American region, BrasFELS has successfully completed a range of construction, integration, upgrading and repair projects over the years.
Mr Kwok Kai Choong, CEO and President of Keppel FELS Brasil said, "We are pleased to support our long-standing customer MODEC with another important project for Brazil's oil and gas industry. Having delivered a number of milestone offshore and marine projects for the country, BrasFELS has built up a strong track record and established itself as a provider of offshore solutions with strong local content. Our yard is committed to deliver all of our projects with Keppel's hallmark executional excellence."

When completed, the FPSO Cidade de Campos dos Goytacazes MV29 will have the capacity to process 150,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd) and 5 million cubic metres of gas per day. The unit's storage capacity is 1.6 million barrels of oil.
Slated to depart the shipyard in the third quarter of 2017, the FPSO will be deployed at Tartaruga Verde and Tartaruga Mestiça Fields, in the Campos Basin, off the coast of Rio de Janeiro.

Mr Sateesh Dev, Executive Managing Officer of MODEC, Inc. said, "We are very pleased to work with BrasFELS on a fifth FPSO project as they have always delivered to our satisfaction. Three units, which have been completed safely and ahead of schedule, are operating successfully in their respective fields. We look forward to working with them on our latest two FPSO collaborations.

"Brazil has one of the most significant offshore oil reserves in the world. We are confident of the long term goal by Brazil to increase oil production and our partnership with a reputable yard like BrasFELS enables us to meet their needs in a timely and safe manner."

BrasFELS' current job for MODEC is the integration and commissioning of the FPSO Cidade de Caraguatatuba MV27. The FPSO is expected to arrive at BrasFELS in the second quarter of 2016, and will be deployed in the Lapa Field, Santos Basin, Brazil.

The FPSO Cidade de Itaguaí MV26, which was delivered by BrasFELS to MODEC in mid-2015 achieved first oil production four months ahead of the schedule, in the Iracema Norte Area of Lula Field in Brazil.

In the past five years, BrasFELS delivered five FPSO projects safely and ahead of schedule, of which three were for MODEC. The above contract is not expected to have a material impact on the net tangible assets or earnings per share of Keppel Corporation Limited for the current financial year.

Wärtsilä Ship Design chosen for offshore maintenance vessel

Wärtsilä has been awarded the contract to provide the design for a new jack-up lift vessel. The contract was signed in March with a well known Chinese yard and there is an option for three more vessels. The Wärtsilä design is developed in collaboration with Altis, a consultancy company specialising in the lift boat market.

Wärtsilä Ship Design has considerable experience in designing offshore and specialised vessels, and its selection for the design of a new, next generation, lift vessel is considered an acknowledgement of the company’s strong track record. Lift vessels are self-propelled and provide an offshore elevating platform with manoeuvring capabilities to support various operations, including oil well intervention activities, and the maintenance, repairs, upgrades and removal of offshore rigs. This latest Wärtsilä design provides better performance compared to conventional designs. In particular its crane capacity, MLC (Maritime Labour Convention) compliance, accommodation, operational water depth, and DP2 (Dynamic Positioning) are all areas where improvements have been made.

“Wärtsilä was chosen to design this new series of vessels because of our expertise, as well as our strong track record in the offshore market. Furthermore, our global engineering and project development services mean that we can be a valuable local partner to both the yard and the owner,” says Riku-Pekka Hägg, Vice President, Ship Design, Wärtsilä Marine Solutions.

The 70.5 metre long vessel can accommodate 250 people and will be capable of operating in water depths of up to 75 metres. It is scheduled for delivery to the customer in September, 2017.

The derrick lay vessel, which is built to Keppel's proprietary design, was named DLV 2000 during a ceremony held earlier today. The first project she will be deployed for is the INPEX Ichthys Liquefied Natural Gas project in offshore Western Australia.

Mr Chow Yew Yuen, Chief Executive Officer of Keppel O&M, said, "We are pleased to deliver what would be McDermott's flagship derrick lay vessel to add to their growing global fleet of specialised vessels. DLV 2000 has been designed with enhanced features to work in water depths of up to 10,000 feet and in severe weather conditions. Having built over 400 vessels, Keppel Singmarine has a strong track record in designing efficient and specialised units to meet the needs of the market. We are confident that this robust and high-quality vessel will serve McDermott well as their flagship derrick lay vessel wherever she operates."

Mr David Dickson, President and CEO of McDermott, added, "We are glad to add this state-of-the-art derrick lay vessel to our global fleet. The flexibility and features built into the design of DLV 2000 will enable us to provide more value-added services to match the needs of the evolving market.

Developed by Keppel's design arm, Marine Technology Development, DLV 2000 is capable of achieving efficient pipelay rates for long trunklines and operating in severe weather conditions while maintaining significant thrust output and power distribution. Although DLV 2000 is designed to carry out pipelaying using the S-lay installation method, the vessel has the flexibility to accommodate a deepwater, 500-tonne flex-lay system that can be installed as needed in response to market needs.

DLV 2000 is one of a number of specialised vessels that Keppel Singmarine has recently delivered, adding to its strong record of designing and building some 400 ships of various specifications and functions.

"Brazil is a key global offshore market," said Luis Araujo, chief executive officer of Aker Solutions. "We have a nearly four-decade presence in the country and are committed to finding solutions to help Petrobras develop its petroleum resources in the most efficient and sustainable manner possible."
Aker Solutions is in April opening a new subsea manufacturing center in Curitiba, doubling its local production capacity. The company is also upgrading its subsea services unit in Rio das Ostras to better meet customer demand.

The contract will be managed at the base in Rio das Ostras in Rio de Janeiro, at a local content rate of 87 percent. This builds on a commitment to develop partnerships with national suppliers.
"We are pleased to be able to continue providing top-notch services and technologies to support Petrobras' production and growth plans in the pre-salt deepwater fields," said Maria Peralta, head of Aker Solutions in Brazil.

The agreement is similar to one signed in 2011 for maintenance of equipment and other offshore services. Currently, Aker Solutions' subsea lifecycle services unit has about 360 employees in Brazil, of which 150 are part of the technical team working offshore. The company has about 1,300 employees in the country.
The contract is booked as part of Aker Solutions' first-quarter order intake.
