Japan's JGC Corporation is understood to have submitted a low bid at about $92 million for the contract. Its offer is some 5.4 per cent cheaper than the next quote of about $97 million, offered by Paris-based Technip-Coflexipwith the local National Petroleum Construction Company.

The front-end engineering and design (FEED) package has been carried out by Technip-Coflexip. The US-based VECO is the project manager.
