Wood To Deliver Engineering Solutions For Shell's Prelude FLNG In Western Australia
(MENAFN- Trend News Agency)
BAKU, Azerbaijan, July 9. Wood, a UK-based
consulting and engineering firm, has secured a significant contract
from Shell to provide solutions for the Prelude FLNG, located
offshore Western Australia, Trend reports.
According to Wood's statement, the firm will deliver brownfield
engineering, procurement, and construction management (EPCm)
solutions for Shell's Prelude FLNG.
The six-year contract, described as "major" by Wood, builds on
the company's 70-year global relationship with Shell. However, no
further details about the new contract were provided.
The 488-meter-long and 74-meter-wide Prelude FLNG shipped its
first cargo in June 2019, following several start-up delays. Shell
temporarily shut down the facility in August last year for
maintenance, resuming operations and shipping the first cargo
post-maintenance in December.
The FLNG has the capacity to produce 3.6 million tonnes per
annum (mtpa) of LNG, 1.3 mtpa of condensate, and 0.4 mtpa of
LPG.
Shell operates the floating facility with a 67.5 percent stake.
Japan's Inpex holds a 17.5 percent stake, South Korea's Kogas owns
10 percent, and Taiwan's CPC holds 5 percent.
