Global Process Systems wins Apache Energy gas compression contract
DUBAI -- Global Process Systems (GPS), a member of Al Jaber Group, the largest construction firm in the UAE, has been awarded a major contract for leading Australian firm Apache Energy Limited.
The award is for the Varanus Island Compression Project (VICP) and involves the installation of two gas compression modules, and associated utility systems, to support enhanced well deliverability from the John Brookes field, north-western Australia.
The project will be executed by a combined team from GPS Singapore and GPS’ facility in Batam, Indonesia.
The two gas-turbine driven compressor packages will be integrated into modules complete with scrubbers, heat exchangers, piping, valves and associated equipment. All fabrication, assembly and mechanical completion activities will be completed in the fabrication yard prior to transportation to site and integration with existing Varanus Island facilities. This modularised approach will minimise site installation work.
GPS’ scope of work includes fabrication engineering, procurement, fabrication, assembly, mechanical completion, sea fastening, weighing and preparation for load-out. The total weight of the modules/skids to be delivered is approximately 1,400 MT and comprises the two compression modules complete with pipe rack, pancakes, stair towers and secondary steel structures.
