EPC contract for the offshore pipeline part of the amended Nam Con Son 2 gas pipeline project between PetroVietnam Gas and PV PIPE
Part of the "Vietnam gas industry development master plan up to 2025, towards 2035" approved by the Prime Minister, the Nam Con Son 2 gas pipeline project plays an important role in the synchronized development task of Vietnam's gas industry infrastructure, completed and put into operation in phase 1 in 2015 with a 151km offshore pipeline from KP 207.5 to BK-Thien Ung platform.
The investment scale of phase 2 of the adjusted Nam Con Son 2 project includes: The offshore pipeline is about 118 km long, with a diameter of 26' from KP 207.5 to the Long Hai shore station; The onshore pipelines and stations include: The shore station at Long Hai (LFS), Pipeline from the Long Hai shore station to Gas Processing Plant 2 (GPP2) at Dinh Co is about 08 km in diameter 26", The dry gas product pipeline from GPP2 to Phu My Gas Distribution Center: about 29.5 km long with a diameter of 30"; 01 shut-off valve station at Phuoc Hoa and the NCS2 gas receiving system at the Phu My gas distribution center; 02 product pipelines (Condensate 6" and LPG 6") about 25 km long from GPP2 to Thi Vai and 03 shut-off valve stations along the pipeline; Gas Processing Plant 2 (GPP2) at Dinh Co.
PVN Coating Signs Contract for the Wrapped Pipe in the Adjusted Nam Con Son 2 Gas Pipeline Project between PetroVietnam Gas and PV COATING
Phase 2 of the Nam Con Son 2 gas pipeline project includes the main packages: EPC offshore pipeline (EPC-1); EPC GPP2 plant (EPC-2); EPC onshore pipeline and stations (EPC-3); Procurement of steel plates; Steel pipe manufacturing; Pipe coating; and some other packages. Among them, the EPC offshore pipeline package (EPC-1) will be carried out by TECHNIP as one of the key packages of the project, with scope of work including: Survey, construction drawing design; procurement of equipment and materials (excluding the 26" pipes already coated with concrete provided by the Investor) and construction, installation of about 118km of offshore pipelines, 26" in diameter from the end point of Phase 1 at Bach Ho to Long Hai (EPC-1 contractor is responsible for connecting the offshore pipeline section of Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the project). PVPIPE and PVCoating carry out pipe manufacturing and coating for 126km of 26" diameter gas pipelines and 29.5km of 30" diameter pipelines.
The EPC contract for Sao Vang - Dai Nguyet under the Project of Gas Gathering and Transportation Pipeline of Sao Vang - Dai Nguyet between PetroVietnam Gas and the Contractor PTSC.
The signing of the three contracts is aimed at ensuring the goal: completing the connection to the offshore pipeline section and being ready to receive the Sao Vang - Dai Nguyet gas expected in the third quarter of 2020.
The project of collecting and transporting gas from Sao Vang – Dai Nguyet also holds significant importance and urgency: This is the process of investing in building pipelines from Sao Vang compression platform connecting to the existing Nam Con Son 2 pipeline, while also connecting to the Thien Ung – Dai Hung field to collect and transport the gas production of Sao Vang – Dai Nguyet and Thien Ung – Dai Hung to the shore. It is expected that upon the completion of the project by the end of Q3/2020, around 2-3 billion cubic meters of gas will be brought to the shore, supplementing the gas source for the Southeast region. The project maximizes the existing gas industrial infrastructure of PV GAS to enhance the project's investment efficiency and offshore gas exploitation. The designed capacity of this gas collection and transportation pipeline is equivalent to 7.9 million cubic meters of gas per day.
