Energy Services company Hallin Marine announced on Thursday its return to the Natuna offshore gas field in Indonesia.
The project, with a total value of approximately US$6 million for a major engineering procedure construction, installation and commissioning contractor, will be executed using the Ullswater subsea operations vessel, the company said in a press statement.
?This latest Indonesian contract is scheduled to commence in June with an estimated duration of 30 days,? said Hallin East Division Managing Director Rik Zwinkels.
?It will centre on an offshore construction campaign to support the laying of 4,200 meters of flexible pipelines and the installation of rigid risers at the platform.
The job scope includes provision of project management and engineering services, saturation diving services, pre-lay survey using Hallin?s? C-ROV work-class remotely operated vehicle and the pre-commissioning of the pipelines, using the subsea operations vessel Ullswater.
?Hallin has a proven track record in this type of flexible pipeline installation including a number of successful projects with our client. This has generated a positive relationship between the offshore personnel, project team and onshore staff of both organizations. Hallin is also an experienced and trusted partner in the Indonesian market,? he said.
Discovered in 1970 by Agip (Italy), the Natuna gas field is located approximately 1,100 kilometers north of Jakarta. It is the largest gas field in southeast Asia. Estimated recoverable reserves total around 46 trillion cubic feet.
