Aker Solutions gets more work on Jansz-Io compression project

Aker Solutions has secured a contract from Chevron Australia to provide the dynamic subsea umbilicals for the Jansz-Io (J-IC) subsea gas compression development located off the coast of Western Australia.

Under the contract, Aker Solutions will provide the engineering, design and manufacturing of a total of about 70 kilometers of dynamic subsea umbilical.

The scope of work includes three subsea compressor umbilicals, two subsea pump umbilicals, as well as ancillary equipment and spares. The umbilicals will provide power from the platform to the subsea compressor and pump modules.

“We are very pleased to have been awarded another important contract by Chevron on the Jansz-Io compression project. We look forward to continuing our relationship with Chevron and maintaining our strong focus on safe and efficient operations,” said Maria Peralta, executive vice president and head of Aker Solutions’ subsea business.

The contract will be booked as order intake in the fourth quarter of 2021 in the company’s Subsea segment.

The contract follows news from July that Aker Solutions will provide the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of the all-electric subsea gas compression system for the Jansz-Io Compression project.

The scope also covers interface responsibility and assistance during installation and commissioning.

The Jansz-Io gas field, located some 200 kilometers offshore the north-western coast of Western Australia, was first discovered in April 2000.

It is a part of the Chevron-operated Gorgon project, said to be one of the world’s largest natural gas developments.
