Petrofac secures US$120 million in Engineering & Production Services (EPS) awards

Petrofac announces awards and contract extensions with a combined value of more than US$120 million, delivering against the Group’s strategy to position Engineering & Production Services (“EPS”) for growth by diversifying into new markets and geographies.

The awards and contract extensions consist of the following:

  • EPS has secured its first small-scale Engineering, Procurement, Construction (EPC) contract in Malaysia. In consortium with partner Serba Dinamik, EPS has been awarded a contract by Asean Bintulu Fertiliser (ABF) Sdn Bhd, one of Malaysia’s largest fertiliser plants, for its Third Boiler Project. The ABF plant located in the central region of Sarawak, which started commercial production in 1985, is a subsidiary of PETRONAS Chemicals Group Berhad. The work scope for the 30-month project includes basic and detailed engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning of an additional package boiler (165 tonnes per hour) to improve overall plant reliability and availability and meet total steam demands of 510 tph.
  • EPS has also secured a new three-year Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Commissioning (EPCC) Framework Agreement (FA) with a North Sea operator. Future projects undertaken through the FA will be supported by Petrofac’s Aberdeen office, where the company is actively growing its engineering team and investing in its brownfield management system in support of its digitalisation strategy.
  • The new brownfield projects awards coincide with key North Sea contract extensions for EPS, including a two-year renewal of an existing seven-asset Operations and Maintenance contract, and the extension of EPS’ existing Engineering Services contract with Chevron North Sea to June 2020.
