Hallin Marine, a Singapore-headquartered energy services company, announced that its SOV Windermere subsea operations vessel is providing offshore support services in the Maleo gas field off Madura, East Java.
The Windermere is engaged in a wide range of platform inspection, repair and maintenance operations, Hallin Marine said in a statement, including underwater gouging and welding, and grouting work on mobile offshore production unit (MOPU).
?Gas from the Maleo field is being produced from a MOPU supported by a six-wellhead platform,? explains John Giddens, Hallin Marine CEO. This is connected to a 7.4 kilometer spur-line to the East Java Gas Pipeline for distribution to the Surabaya and Gresik gas grid.
SOV Windermere is equipped for wellhead servicing, inspection and construction diving as well as remote-operated submersible vehicle support. The Maleo gas field is estimated to have proven and probable reserves of around 240 billion cubic feet. Production commenced in 2006.
