Global energy firm, Saipem announced in a statement that it has received a Letter of Award for the development of the North Field Production Sustainability Offshore Project by Qatargas, located offshore of the North-East cost of Qatar peninsula.
The contract value is approximately USD 1.7 billion.
The scope of work encompasses the Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Installation of various offshore facilities for the extraction and transportation of natural gas, including platforms, supporting and connecting structures, subsea cables and anticorrosion internally cladded pipelines.
Furthermore, the project encompasses the decommissioning of a pipeline and other significant modifications to existing offshore facilities.
Pipe-laying and lifting operations will be executed by the DE HE vessel in water depths of approximately 65 meters, leveraging on Saipem’s high-end welding technology for corrosion resistant cladded pipelines to meet Client’s stringent quality requirements.
