Questions around this news

  1. What work does the FPSO Errea Wittu contract cover?

    The contract is with Offshore Frontier Solutions, a MODEC Group company. Seatrium’s work covers installing and integrating topside modules aboard the FPSO Errea Wittu, along with providing completion and commissioning support for MODEC.

  2. What is an FPSO and what does it do?

    An FPSO is a floating offshore vessel used to process and store hydrocarbons produced from subsea or other offshore wells. It can also offload oil to shuttle tankers or transfer it through pipelines. The vessel allows production operations to take place offshore, where building fixed infrastructure may be impractical.

  3. Where will the FPSO Errea Wittu operate, and what capacity is planned?

    The vessel is expected to operate in the Uaru Field in the Stabroek Block, about 200 kilometers offshore Guyana. The release gives its expected capacities as 250,000 barrels of oil per day, 350,000 barrels of water injected per day, and 540 million cubic feet of gas produced per day, with storage for two million barrels of oil.

  4. What does topsides integration involve?

    Topsides integration is the process of installing and connecting the equipment and modules located above a vessel’s deck. On an offshore production vessel, these systems can include equipment for processing hydrocarbons, utilities, and control. Integration work helps bring separate modules together so they can operate as part of the vessel’s overall production system.

SINGAPORE, May 6, 2024 -- Seatrium Limited (Seatrium or the Group) is pleased to announce that it has secured a Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) topsides integration contract from longstanding customer, Offshore Frontier Solutions Pte. Ltd., a MODEC Group company. 

The contract scope of work covers the installation and integration of topside modules onboard the FPSO Errea Wittu, and includes completion and commissioning support for MODEC.

Mr Marlin Khiew, Executive Vice President, Oil & Gas (Americas) of Seatrium, said, "We are pleased to be working with our longstanding customer, MODEC, on yet another FPSO topsides integration project, solidifying our position as the industry leader in FPSO conversions. Through our strong partnership and unwavering dedication, including decades of collaboration with MODEC, we continue to deliver cutting-edge offshore solutions that redefine excellence. Leveraging our deep engineering expertise, international yard footprint, and strong track record, Seatrium provides innovative, reliable, quality, and value-added offshore and marine solutions for our esteemed customers."

The FPSO Errea Wittu will be deployed in the Uaru Field, Stabroek Block, approximately 200 kilometers offshore Guyana. The FPSO Errea Wittu is expected to have a production capacity of 250,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd), water injection capacity of 350,000 barrels of water per day (bwpd), 540 million cubic feet per day (mmscfd) of gas production and a storage capacity of two million barrels of oil.

Over the years, Seatrium has built a strong track record in the FPSO space, including delivering a significant number of FPSO projects for MODEC since its first FPSO conversion Whakaaropai in 1996. The Group is currently undertaking integration work for FPSO Bacalhau, which will be operating in the Bacalhau field, Santos Basin, offshore Brazil. Separately, BrasFELS, Seatrium’s yard in Angra dos Reis, Brazil, is also currently executing topside modules fabrication for FPSO Raia.
