McDermott Wins EPCI for 155 Miles of Offshore, Onshore Pipelines in Qatar's North Field
(P&GJ) — McDermott has secured an engineering, procurement, construction, and installation (EPCI) contract from QatarEnergy LNG for the North Field South (NFS) offshore pipelines and cables project.
This contract adds to McDermott’s previous awards for the North Field Expansion Project (NFXP), which includes work on the NFS Pipelines FEED, NFS Jackets EPCI, and NFXP Topsides and Pipelines.
The NFS infrastructure will supply feed gas for two additional LNG trains, contributing to Qatar's plans to boost LNG production from 77 million tons per annum (MTPA) to 142 MTPA.
"McDermott has been supporting Qatar’s offshore energy sector since the 1990s. We look forward to continuing our work with QatarEnergy LNG on this strategic project," said Mike Sutherland, McDermott’s Senior Vice President, Offshore Middle East.
Neil Gunnion, McDermott's Qatar Country Manager, added, "McDermott is now responsible for all of the offshore infrastructure for Qatar’s North Field Expansion. Our operations in Doha and Ras Laffan position us to deliver complex offshore projects entirely within Qatar."
The contract covers the EPCI of nearly 250 km (155 miles) of offshore and onshore gas pipelines, connecting five new offshore wellhead platforms to two new onshore LNG trains. The project also includes subsea power and control cables, with fabrication done in Qatar and installation using McDermott’s marine assets.
