Dec 22 (LNGJ) - Seatrium of Singapore has successfully delivered a floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU), the “Energos Celsius”, to New York-based LNG project developer New Fortress Energy (NFE). “The FSRU was completed safely, on time and within budget and has departed the Seatrium shipyard for Brazil. It will subsequently be deployed at NFE’s completed LNG terminal in Barcarena in Brazil’s Pará state,” said Seatrium, formerly called Sembcorp Marine Ltd and renamed as Seatrium following its merger with Keppel Offshore & Marine.

   The “Energos Celsius” is owned by Energos Infrastructure, a global marine infrastructure platform backed by the US Apollo fund management firm and NFE. The vessel is on long-term charter to NFE in Brazil. “We are proud to successfully deliver the FSRU to New Fortress Energy and look forward to partnering with them on more projects,” said Marlin Khiew, Executive Vice President for Oil & Gas (Americas) at Seatrium. “This project marks Seatrium’s fourth FSRU project for Brazil and it demonstrates our commitment and reliability in supporting the development and growth of the country’s oil and gas industry,” Khiew added.

Dec 4 (LNGJ) - BrasFELS Shipyard, located in the southwest of Rio de Janeiro state in Brazil and part of the Singapore-based Seatrium Group, has secured a contract from a subsidiary of Japan’s MODEC to undertake parts of the topside modules fabrication of a Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) unit for the Raia natural gas project in Brazil, operated by Norway’s Equinor on behalf of a consortium. The Raia project comprises the development of a pre-salt gas and condensate field in the Campos Basin, located about 200 kilometres (124 miles) offshore the Brazilian state of Rio de Janeiro to produce mainly gas but also some oil.

   “We are pleased to partner with MODEC on yet another FPSO topside modules fabrication project, affirming Seatrium’s position as a leading global player in FPSO newbuilds and conversions,” said Marlin Khiew, Executive Vice President of Oil & Gas (Americas) at Seatrium. “Over the years, we have leveraged our deep engineering expertise, international yard footprint and strong track record to deliver over 260 Floating Production Units and FPSO conversions and newbuilds, solidifying our market leadership in this product segment,” Khiew added.
