The Sarawak fLNG project is to go for exploration & production at the Rotan and Biris fields developed by Murphy Oil  both located offshore Sarawak.

Four pre-qualified groups submitted bids in late April for the front-end engineering and design (FEED) studies on what would be Malaysia’s second FLNG unit. These four groups in competition are the following:

 – Technip with Hyundai Heavy Industries

 – Daewoo Shipbuilding & ­Marine Engineering with Saipem and Japan’s Chiyoda

 – Samsung Heavy Industries with Japan’s JGC

 – CB&I with Modec, IHI Shipbuilding and Toyo Engineering.

Malaysia Marine Heavy Engineering is not participating in the FEED tender, but the fabricator is understood to be interested in seeking a role as a third party contractor during the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) phase.

In June Petronas will be selected the final bidders for the FEED competition ­expected to last about 10 months and lead to the award of the engineering, procurement and ­construction (EPC) contract.
