Lamprell is pleased to announce that it has been awarded a medium-sized* contract by International Maritime Industries (IMI) to undertake engineering design services.
Starting immediately and extending over the next three years, the work will be undertaken in two parts: an initial phase incorporating full detailed design engineering, followed by the production design phase.
This work forms an integral part of IMI’s 2030 new build rig programme; supporting the strategy for establishing itself as a fully autonomous in-Kingdom yard facility servicing clients in the maritime sector including maintenance, repair, overhaul and newbuild rigs and ships.
Christopher McDonald, CEO, Lamprell said: “Working closely with our IMI partners, we are delighted to be starting this key piece of engineering work. It complements and builds on the two jackup rigs we were awarded at the beginning of the year. Also, it further expands our remit for being able to welcome Saudi nationals into our facilities as part of supporting IMI’s local capacity building. When completed, the maritime yard in Saudi Arabia will become a major contributor to the local economy and we are proud to be associated with such a strategic vision.”
*(Lamprell defines a “medium-sized contract” as between USD 6 million and USD 50 million)
