Mr Alvin Gan, Executive Vice President of Seatrium Repairs and Upgrades, said, “We thank our customers for their confidence in Seatrium’s capabilities and for entrusting us with these important projects. Each of these projects demand strong project management, engineering and strong Health, Safety, Security and Environment (HSSE) and quality standards.

The diverse range of complex contracts secured by Seatrium Repairs and Upgrades include the upgrades and conversions of Floating Storage Regasification Units (FSRU), life-extension and remediation works for Floating Production Systems, LNG carriers’ repairs, cruise ships’ repairs and refurbishments, offshore and naval works. 

FSRU Conversion
Seatrium has successfully secured contracts to convert three LNG Carriers (LNGC) into Floating Storage and Regasification Units (FSRUs) for Karpowership, with an option for a fourth project. The conversion work involves installing a regasification skid, as well as other supporting systems such as cargo, utility, spread-mooring, offloading, electrical, and automation systems.

Scheduled to commence in 2Q 2024, this milestone contracts exemplifies a succession of FSRU conversions executed by Seatrium for Karpowership. It builds upon a track record of successful deliveries, including the Karmol LNGT Powership Africa, Karmol LNGT Powership Asia and Karmol LNGT Powership Europe, showcasing Seatrium's commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction. It also reinforces Seatrium's position as pioneer and market leader in the highly specialised FSRU conversion market

Vessel life extension, upgrade and remediation 
Seatrium has also secured a contract with MODEC Management Services Pte. Ltd, operator of the asset for Woodside Energy for the maintenance and upgrade of a Floating Production Storage & Offloading system (FPSO), the FPSO Pyrenees Venture. Scheduled to commence in 2Q 2024, the vessel is expected to be re-deployed back into production off the coast of Western Australia, Australia. 

In another project, Seatrium will be performing major remediation work for Chevron Thailand Exploration and Production, Ltd. (Chevron) also scheduled to commence in 2Q 2024. 

Cruise Ship Refurbishment

Seatrium has secured a series of 10 cruise vessels from our long-term partners, Carnival Corporation and Royal Caribbean Group, for vessel retrofits in 2024.

Seatrium continues to play the vital role in contributing to Singapore’s position as a major hub for cruise ship repairs, upgrades and refurbishment. With the strong growth in global cruise tourism especially in Asia, we are well-positioned to capture growing market opportunities in this market segment.
