Baker Hughes, a GE company (NYSE: BHGE) said June 25 it has been awarded a substantial contract from Chevron Australia Pty Ltd. for the supply of subsea production equipment, under a 15-year Master Service Order (MSO), with a second contract for well completion equipment.
These technology solutions will enable a second development phase within the Greater Gorgon area offshore Australia, helping to maintain gas supply to the downstream LNG plant.
This next phase is the first to be executed under the terms of the MSO with BHGE, signed in March 2016. The SPS scope of supply includes 13 subsea production trees, two eight-slot manifolds, 13 MS-700 SFX fatigue-resistant wellheads and specialty connectors and pipes systems, and 16 Sem2K subsea control systems and associated equipment. BHGE is also supplying well completion equipment and services under a separate five-year contract, including coring work, liner hangers, completions and wellbore cleanup technology.
The Gorgon development is one of the largest natural gas projects in the world today, and BHGE has been a key partner in this multistage development.
“The expanded Gorgon subsea infrastructure will continue to be supported out of BHGE’s state-of-the-art oil and gas campus in Jandakot, Western Australia, where more than $100 million has been invested in significant infrastructure and engineering capabilities to service the latest technologies deployed in the development,” Visal Leng, president for APAC at BHGE, said.
