Rolls-Royce is to supply Abu Dhabi Marine Operating Company (ADMA-OPCO) with power generation equipment and services to help boost oil and gas processing at the Satah Al- Razboot (SARB) offshore project in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
The contract was awarded by Korean engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) firm Hyundai Engineering and Construction (HDEC).
Rolls-Royce will supply five aero-derivative Trent 60 gas turbine generator sets to power offshore production platforms and oil and gas processing facilities on Zirku Island, offshore UAE.
The Zirku Island oil and gas processing facility will have a daily capacity of 200,000 bbl, and 35MM cu ft natural gas. It will process oil and gas from 86 wells on the SARB oil field, 120km northwest of Abu Dhabi. Zirku island will also have a facility built by HDEC to separate gas from crude oil collected in the SARB and Umm Al Lulu oil fields. Facilities for collection and transport will be constructed on two artificial islands.
Each Trent 60 gas turbine is capable of producing up to 66 megawatts of power and will feature low emissions technology to minimise environmental impact.
The contract, which is the first Trent 60 gas turbine sale to a Korean EPC, brings the total number of Trent 60 gas turbines operating in the UAE oil and gas market to fourteen.
Rolls-Royce will manufacture and package the equipment at its facilities in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and Mount Vernon, Ohio, U.S.A.
ADMA-OPCO is 60% owned by the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), with the remaining 40% shareholding divided between BP, Total and JODCO.
