Babcock assists on LPG floating storage study
Aerospace company Babcock has delivered the conceptual engineering support for a combined condensate and LPG floating storage and offloading feasibility study for Twinza Oil.
The company undertook the eight-week concept study for a new field development in Papua New Guinea. Major hull conversion scopes and LPG chilling plant topsides were defined and the hull evaluated for strength and motion.
“We were delighted to work with our new customer Twinza Oil to carry out conceptual engineering support,” said Neil Young, Babcock’s engineering and technology director.
“Our team of engineers and designers have shown demonstrable quality on this study and using their global reach they have provided a cost effective and practical solution for the customer. We were able to flex and adapt to meet our customer’s expectation and look forward to competing for future pre-FEED and FEED work.”
With more than 700 engineers and designers in its marine sector, Babcock works closely with clients in the UK and internationally to develop technical solutions and designs.
The company provides engineering support services including concept engineering, pre-front end engineering design (pre-FEED), feasibility and technical analysis, FEED, basic, detail and production design, and project management and commission support for new build, conversions and in-service vessels.
