BESPOKE 20T CHAIN BLOCKS FOR THE GUMUSUT-KAKAP FLOATING PRODUCTION SYSTEM

2013-07-01 377

We recently worked with SapuraAcergy on the Gumusut-Kakap Floating Production System (FPS) Installation project to help solve a 20t jack up installation where standard rigging could not accommodate the lift. We designed and developed some one off 20t chain blocks which were first project tested using the 3D drawings we provided, followed by FAT tests and then successful on site installation. This semi submersible floating production system (semi-FPS) for Malaysia’s Gumusut-Kakap deepwater field has been successfully delivered and is in the process of being installed at the site and mooring was successfully completed on June 24 2013. Once installed, it will be the largest offshore operating facility not only in Malaysia but in Asia.
