KBR to engineer significant expansion of Indonesian gas infrastructure
KBR, Inc announced today it has been awarded a contract by PT PLN, the Indonesian State-owned power generation company, for engineering and design services to expand the gas supply infrastructure across Indonesia.
Under the terms of the contract, KBR will perform the feasibility study to develop a reliable, efficient and robust infrastructure and logistics ecosystem for the LNG regasification of and gas supply to the multiple gas fired power plants in Sumatera, Maluku and Papua provinces, with the potential for additional locations.
With the findings and recommendations from the feasibility study, KBR will then perform the front end engineering design (FEED) work for the proposed infrastructure schemes, developing preliminary engineering designs and technical design basis. During the course of the project, KBR will also provide on-the-job training to PLN's project team members.
Both the feasibility study and FEED work are expected to be performed over approximately nine months through an integrated team led by LNG expertise from KBR's London office with support from KBR's Jakarta office and its Granherne subsidiary.
"KBR is very pleased to be awarded this important project for the realization of a significant expansion of Indonesia's gas infrastructure as part of its power supply plan. We look forward to continuing our long history in Indonesia and our valued relationship with PT PLN," said Greg Conlon, KBR President, Asia Pacific. "This project demonstrates KBR's ability to offer integrated solutions through a collaborative execution model to our customers in Asia Pacific by bringing together our global knowledge, experiences and expertise," Conlon continued.
For more than 40 years, KBR has led the concept development, study, design and construction of over forty-five percent of the world's LNG facilities. KBR has participated in nearly 50 LNG terminal projects covering all project phases including feasibility studies, basic design, FEED and engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) execution.
Revenue associated with this project was undisclosed and will be booked into backlog of unfilled orders for KBR's Engineering & Construction Business Segment in Q4 2016.
