Italian contractor Saipem has inked a contract for use of Solstad Offshore's construction support vessel (CSV) Normand Installer as part of offshore installation works on the Jangkirk floating production unit (FPU) offshore Indonesia.
The Jangkrik FPU is a part of Jangkrik Complex Project, operated by Italy's Eni as contractor to SKK Migas, the Indonesian upstream oil and gas agency. Eni holds a 55% interest in the project. Other Jangkrik partners are ENGIE (33.3%) and Saka Energi Muara Bakau (11.7%).
An engineering, procurement, construction and installation contract for the project was awarded to a consortium led by Saipem, with partners Hyundai Heavy Industries, Tripatra Engineers & Constructors and Chiyoda International Indonesia.
