VetcoGray, a GE Oil & Gas business, has received an award for a frame agreement covering a period of five (5) years to supply subsea equipment and support services for the Gorgon Project.

The Gorgon Project includes the subsea development of the Greater Gorgon natural gas fields, located about 130 kilometers (km) off the north-west coast of Western Australia and that have water depths of 200-to-1,300 meters and lie between 65 and 134 km from Barrow Island. The fields will be linked to a three train, 15 million tons-per-year LNG facility, with provision for domestic gas production on Barrow Island. Chevron Australia Pty Ltd of Perth is 50% owner and operator of the Gorgon Project in a joint venture with the Australian subsidiaries of ExxonMobil and Shell.

“We’re extremely pleased that Chevron has selected our technology, which has been proven in LNG applications worldwide, for this major Australian development,” said Dave Tucker, chief operating officer of VetcoGray. “The Gorgon Project offers a tremendous opportunity to expand our capabilities to support commercialization of the significant gas resources located offshore north Western Australia.”

The scope of VetcoGray’s contract includes the supply of manifolds, pipeline termination structures, pipeline end terminations, trees with subsea control modules, wellheads, production control systems, system integration testing, installation and operations support.
