McDermott has been awarded an engineering, procurement, construction and installation (EPCI) contract by QatarEnergy LNG for the North Field South (NFS) offshore pipelines and cables project.
This new contract is in addition to the awards received by McDermott earlier for the NFS pipelines FEED, the NFS jackets EPCI, and the NFXP topsides and pipelines which included the NFS topsides project.
The NFS infrastructure is designed to supply feed gas for two additional LNG trains and is part of the North Field expansion project (NFXP), which will help increase the total LNG production in the state of Qatar from the current 77 million tons per annum (MTPA) to 142 MTPA.
The scope of the contract comprises EPCI of almost 250 kilometers of offshore and onshore gas pipelines connecting five new offshore wellhead platforms with two new onshore LNG trains in addition to subsea composite power and control cables.
The project will be managed from the McDermott Doha office with in-country fabrication support from the QFAB fabrication yard and will be installed with McDermott’s in-house marine assets.
