ONGC awarded the contract for the Heera Redevelopment (HRD) process platform project in the Arabian Sea, located about 70km South-West of Mumbai, India.
The value of Technip’s share in the contract is about EUR50m.
Under the contract, Technip, AFCONS and TH Heavy Engineering will be responsible for the engineering, procurement, fabrication, transportation, installation, hook-up and commissioning of the HRD process platform.
The scope of the work will also include shifting the existing cable in the seabed and installing a new bridge connecting the existing HRC process platform.
The companies will also have to strengthen the existing bridge and perform modifications on an existing HRC process platform to ensure interconnections between all the process lines and the utilities.
Technip India country manager and vice president Samik Mukherjee said to execute the project work, the company will employ its proprietary float-over installation technology.
"This award is the first offshore project on EPCIC basis for Technip in India. It will also be one of the rare float-over installations in the Indian Ocean," Mukherjee added.
