Seatrium Limited (Seatrium) delivers its 18th Floating Production Storage and Offloading vessel (FPSO), BW Opal, to BW Offshore.
Seatrium has been involved in the installation and integration works of topside modules, deck equipment and the turret mooring system, and completion and commissioning support for BW Offshore.
Seatrium says that the 18th FPSO is designed with a gas handling capacity of 850 million standard cubic feet per day (MMscfd) and 11,000 barrels per day of stabilised condensate.
It is designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 15% compared to traditional systems, translating to a reduction of up to 2.3 million tonnes of CO2 emissions over the life of the asset.
Seatrium says that FPSO BW Opal is one of the largest ever delivered to Australia and will be deployed at the Santos operated Barossa Field in northern Australia.
“We would like to express our appreciation to BW Offshore for entrusting Seatrium with their projects over the years. The successful completion of BW Opal is a testament of our strong teamwork, project management and experience, reinforcing Seatrium’s standing as the world leader in the conversion, modification and completion of FPSOs,” says Marlin Khiew, executive VP, Energy (Americas), Seatrium.
