        荷兰的打捞、运输、安装和拆除服务提供商Marine Masters已被选定为印度第二大私营石油生产商SunPetro在古吉拉特邦库奇湾的两座海上井口平台提供安装服务。

 

        这家荷兰承包商的工作包括为吊装和系泊活动进行详细准备，涵盖两座导管架及其各自上部结构的吊装、桩的翻转和安装，以及为海底和打桩作业建造专用平台。

 

        由于每个导管架的重量约为800吨，这家荷兰公司认为这凸显了项目的技术要求以及精确工程执行的必要性。该项目由主要安装承包商ACE Pipeline管理，并由Consolidated Support Services (CSS) 直接监督。

 

        这家荷兰公司在描述由SunPetro设计和建造的绿地项目Bhasker A和B平台时称其为“一项关键的海上安装项目”，并详细说明了该项目涉及开发两座井口平台，这些平台具有带集成登船设施和上部结构的“坚固”导管架。

 

        Marine Masters已租用“Conquest MB1”重型驳船，该驳船拥有约1400吨的吊装能力，并配备了两台移动式起重机，吊装能力分别为180吨和500吨。

 

        这艘驳船将负责荷兰公司的工作，确保项目的所有阶段都“安全高效地”执行。去年曾发布招标公告，为古吉拉特邦库奇湾巴斯卡尔-III油田的智能井口平台的运输和安装（T&I）服务聘请承包商。

 

        Marine Masters联合创始人兼合伙人Henk Smith评论道：“我们很荣幸能在这一具有挑战性且备受瞩目的项目中支持Sun Petro、ACE Pipeline和CSS。Conquest MB1的部署充分展示了我们利用先进的海洋技术和运营专长来安全高效地执行复杂海上安装的承诺。这艘起重驳船将留在该地区，并可用于其他具有挑战性的打捞、拆除或运输与安装项目。”

 

        目前正前往孟买的“Conquest MB1”预计将于2025年3月7日抵达。一旦获得必要的入境许可并完成所有动员活动，该船将前往位于印度坎德拉以南110海里的库奇湾海上地点，预计于2025年3月20日到达。

 

        预计安装工作将于2025年5月15日前完成。巴斯卡尔-III油田位于古吉拉特邦奥卡市以西50公里的库奇盆地浅水区，拥有多个位于第三纪和中生代油藏的小油田群。

 

        这被视为一个二类盆地，尚未开始商业性油气生产。该资产有望成为首个生产商业性油气的油田，并将使该盆地升级为一类盆地。油田面积约为1456平方公里。

 

        SunPetro于2022年在DSF-III招标轮中获得该油田，拥有100%的参与权益。合同区是一个包含11个第三纪发现和3个中生代发现的单一区域，油田大部分地区覆盖有二维和三维地震数据。

Marine Masters, the Netherlands-based salvage, transport, installation, and decommissioning player, has been handpicked to handle the installation works for two offshore wellhead platforms in the Gulf of Kutch, India for SunPetro, said to be the country’s second-largest private oil producer.

 

The Dutch contractor’s work entails detailed preparation for lifting and mooring activities, covering the lifting of two jackets and their respective topsides, upending and installation of piles, and the creation of a dedicated platform for subsea and piling operations.

 

Since each jacket weighs approximately 800 tons, the Netherlands-based firm believes it underscores the project’s technical demands and the need for precise engineering execution. This project is managed by main installation contractor ACE Pipeline and directly overseen by Consolidated Support Services (CSS).

 

While describing the greenfield Bhasker A and B platforms, designed and constructed by SunPetro, as “a pivotal offshore installation project,” the Dutch company elaborates that it involves the development of two wellhead platforms, featuring “robust” jackets with integrated boat landings and topsides.

 

Marine Masters has chartered the Conquest MB1, a heavy-lift barge boasting a lifting capacity of approximately 1,400 tons and equipped with two mobile cranes, with lifting capacities of 180 tons and 500 tons respectively.

 

This barge will handle the Dutch firm’s job, ensuring all phases of the project are executed “safely and efficiently.” The tender to hire a contractor was disclosed last year for services related to the transportation and installation (T&I) of smart wellhead platforms in the Bhaskar-III field, Gulf of Kutch, Gujarat.

 

Henk Smith, Co-founder and Partner at Marine Masters, commented: “We are honored to support Sun Petro, ACE Pipeline, and CSS in this challenging, high-profile project. The deployment of the Conquest MB1 exemplifies our commitment to leveraging advanced marine technology and operational expertise to execute complex offshore installations safely and efficiently. The crane barge will remain in the region and is available for other challenging salvage, decommissioning, or transport & installation projects.”

 

The Conquest MB1, currently in transit to Mumbai, is scheduled to arrive on March 7, 2025. Once it obtains the necessary inward clearance and completes all mobilization activities, the vessel will proceed to the offshore location in the Gulf of Kutch, 110 nautical miles south of Kandla, India, with an expected arrival on March 20, 2025.

 

The installation work is anticipated to be completed by May 15, 2025. Bhaskar-III is a field in shallow water 50 kilometers west of Okha city in Gujarat in the Kutch basin, having clusters of multiple small discoveries in Tertiary and Mesozoic reservoirs.

 

This is perceived as a category II basin, which has not yet started commercial hydrocarbon production. The asset is expected to be the first to produce commercial hydrocarbons and will also upgrade the basin to a category-I basin. The field is spread over an area of about 1,456 square kilometers.

 

SunPetro got the field award under the DSF-III bid round with 100% participating interest in 2022. The contract area is a single area with eleven Tertiary discoveries and three Mesozoic discoveries, with the major part of the field area covered with 2D and 3D seismic data.
