ADNOC Awards Baker Hughes Two Major Contracts Through its Local Partners

by with No Comment News

Baker Hughes has been awarded two contracts from Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) this week for equipment and services across multiple upstream fields and projects in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The contracts were announced at this year’s Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition and Conference (ADIPEC).

As part of ADNOC’s largest ever wellheads award globally, Baker Hughes’ Surface Pressure Control (SPC) product line in the Oilfield Equipment business has been awarded a major contract for the manufacture, supply, storage, and servicing of surface wellhead and tree systems with local partner Al Ghaith Oilfield Supplies & Services Company. The contract covers ADNOC’s onshore and offshore fields in the UAE for the next 10 years, as well as a long-term service contract to cover the repair, maintenance, and spares for the project’s equipment.

In addition, Baker Hughes’ Oilfield Services (OFS) business has been awarded a contract to manufacture, supply, store, install and service liner hanger systems over five years with local partner Uni-Arab Engineering & Oilfield Service. The contract will leverage Baker Hughes’ in-country workshop and further supports the UAE’s emphasis on local manufacturing through in-country value strategy and localization.

“These are strategic deals for Baker Hughes within the UAE, strengthening our footprint and significantly increasing our presence in the region,” said Ayman Khattab, vice president of Surface Pressure Control for Oilfield Equipment at Baker Hughes. “Our localized presence and strong record of execution in the UAE makes us a partner of choice for ADNOC. We are supporting the UAE and ADNOC’s growing energy needs and committed to transforming the industry by providing reliable technology and delivering operational excellence.”

The first delivery of the surface wellheads and trees contract work will be in early 2022, and the first delivery of the liner hanger systems contract is planned for the second half of 2022.

The awards are an integral part of ADNOC’s 2030 strategy and support its supply chain and ecosystem development, local capabilities, and job creation for local talent. Additionally, the awards will help enable ADNOC’s drilling needs as it expands its production capacity. Baker Hughes’ business model supports ADNOC’s in-country value program and vendor managed inventory (VMI) service, maintaining an agreed inventory of required equipment in Abu Dhabi and allowing Baker Hughes to be more efficient and reduce delivery time.

Baker Hughes, a global energy technology company, has been awarded a contract from Chevron Australia Pty Ltd to deliver subsea compression manifold technology for the Jansz-Io Compression (J-IC) Project.

Driven by Baker Hughes’ Subsea Connect early engagement approach, Baker Hughes will provide Chevron with a subsea compression manifold structure (SCMS) including module and foundation, as well as the latest optimized version of its horizontal clamp connector system and subsea controls for the manifold structure.

“We continue to transform the core of our subsea business by delivering reliable life-of-field solutions designed to drive efficiency and productivity,” said Graham Gillies, vice president of Asia Pacific at Baker Hughes. “Our Subsea Connect business model has enabled early engagement, allowing us to combine the best of our technology with engineering and project management localization.”

Baker Hughes Announces Major LNG Turbomachinery Order from Qatar Petroleum for the North Field East (NFE) Project

by with No Comment News

Baker Hughes announced an order with longtime partner Qatar Petroleum to supply multiple main refrigerant compressors (MRCs) for Qatar Petroleum’s North Field East (NFE) project, executed by Qatargas. The total award is part of four LNG “mega trains,” representing 33 million tons per annum (MTPA) of additional capacity, which will increase Qatar’s total liquefied natural gas (LNG) production capacity from 77 MTPA to 110 MTPA and help to propel the Gulf nation to global LNG production leadership by 2025. This order is among the largest LNG deals secured by Baker Hughes in the past five years, for both MTPA and equipment awarded.

The order reinforces more than two decades of trust and successful turbomachinery collaboration between Baker Hughes, Qatar Petroleum and Qatargas. With Qatargas already operating six existing LNG “mega trains” driven by Frame 9E gas turbine refrigerant compressors provided by Baker Hughes, the NFE project underscores the leadership of Baker Hughes LNG technology in the Gulf region and for the world’s most complex LNG projects.
