INTRODUCTION<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Widely known by the abbreviation JDA, the wedge-shaped Malaysia-Thailand Joint Development Area (JDA) covers an area of about 7,250 sq. km., formed by overlapping continental shelf claims between the two countries. The heart of JDA lies about 180 km from the shores of Pattani province, 260 km from the shores of Songkhla, and 150 km from Kota Bahru in Kelantan State of Malaysia. <\/span><\/p>\n

Phase<\/span>\u00a0I primarily involved the installation of the Muda Processing Platform (MDPP) and living quarters platform (MDLQ), five wellhead platforms namely Muda-A (MDA), (MDB), (MDC), (MDD) and Jengka-A (JKA), the leased FSO Ratu Songkhla with a storage capacity of 550,000 barrels, a flare tripod, and interconnected subsea pipeline.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The<\/span>\u00a0engineering, procurement, construction, installation and commissioning (EPIC) contract for the phase I was\u00a0been awarded to SapuraKencana Petroleum Berhad (SapuraKencana).<\/span><\/p>\n

Sembcrop Marine Offshore Platform Pte. Ltd was the engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning (EPCC) contractor for the MDPP, whereas the jacket was supplied by Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering (MMHE)<\/span>.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0EPCC contractor for the MDLQ, flare tripod and three bridges was Sapura-Kencana, the detailed engineering works for the MDLQ were performed by BHIC Petroleum and the construction engineering, fabrication, loadout and sea-fastening of the MDLQ jacket and flare tripod were performed by CUEL. The wellhead platforms under phase I were fabricated by Oilfab. <\/span><\/p>\n

Transport<\/span>\u00a0and float-over installation of the MDPP platform were performed by Dockwise. The heavy-lift installation of the MDDP’s jacket was performed by Sapura Acergy.<\/span><\/p>\n

The jacket had a temporary rigging platform pre-installed at the fabrication yard to accommodate the jacket side lift and upend slings, which was pre-rigged at the fabrication yard.\u00a0The fabricator alsoe\u00a0pre-rig the Topside rigging. The details on pre-rigging arrangement for each platform are outlined in its respective procedure.<\/span><\/p>\n

The four (4) platforms components will be loaded out and transported to the installation site on the following transportation barges:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
