"Gas Systems"
Track Record
SBM's experience in "Gas Systems" started
several years ago with the supply of
mooring systems and terminals such as for the Ardjuna Sakti
LPG storage barge originally installed
in 1976 and operated by ARCO.
Significant "Gas Experience" was
gained by the SBM group of companies
through the operation of several FPSOs supplied
on a turnkey basis for the production
of offshore fields featuring large volumes
of associated gas. One prime example
of such an FPSO is the Tantawan
FPSO, leased and operated by SBM
on behalf of ChevronTexaco in the Gulf
of Thailand. This unit is capable
of treating and compressing up to 150 MMscfd of
gas to pipeline export pressure.
Offshore LPG storage, processing and
offloading in either pressurized or
refrigerated conditions is already part
of SBM's normal scope of services. SBM just completed the fabrication of the Sanha LPG FPSO which started operations in Angola in April 2005 under a lease contract for ChevronTexaco.
SBM also owns and operates
together with Maersk for TOTAL NKossa
II LPG FSO, which has been in service
since November 1996.
