Aqualis Offshore has completed the offshore installation engineering of steel jacket for Bahrain LNG terminal

UK-based offshore engineering firm Aqualis Offshore has completed the offshore installation engineering of an 1,800 tonnes steel jacket structure offshore Bahrain as part of the Bahrain LNG import terminal.

Aqualis Offshore delivered the project on behalf of its client South Korea’s GS E&C, which is the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor for the Bahrain LNG project. Aqualis Offshore was contracted by GS E&C to provide loadout, transport and offshore installation of the jacket.

Aqualis Offshore’s scope of work provided full engineering services related to the loadout, transportation and float off operation, towing, positioning, lowering to the seabed and buoyancy tank removal, including all marine procedures.

The jacket installation was done at a shallow depth of 20 metres at the site in Bahrain.

The company, part of Oslo-listed Aqualis, in a statement said the offshore installation work was executed in May. The contract value was not disclosed.

Aqualis Offshore managed the jacket installation project out of its Singapore office. The associated topside floatover installation will be executed in August 2018.
