Jurong Wins $80M
FPSO Conversion
SembCorp Marine Ltd. said its whol- ly-owned subsidiary Jurong Shipyard
Pte Ltd. won a project worth about $80 million from U.S.-based Kellog Brown & Root Inc. to convert a crude oil tanker into an oil platform.
The project involves the conversion of a 270.000 dwt crude carrier to a floating production, storage and offloading plat- form to be stationed offshore from
Brazil. After the project's completion in the third quarter of 2002, the platform will have the capacity to produce 150,000 barrels a day of oil as well as gas compression capacity. Jurong Ship- yard is also investing $8.8 million for a 70 percent stake in a Brazilian joint ven- ture for conversion and construction of floating production and drilling units for deep water oil and gas exploration and production. The Maua Group will hold the remaining 30 percent stake in the venture, it said. SembCorp said Jurong
Shipyard will be using internal funds for the investment and it is thus not expect- ed to have a material impact on its earn- ings.
