We were appointed as consultants by PB Tankers Ltd/Tankstore to develop the offshore oil facilities on Pulau Busing Island, off Singapore’s busy south coast.
The work was motivated by the increasing costs of oil, and our team was in place to provide a total engineering design and project management consultancy for four new jetties. Consisting of four berths, the oil tanker jetty accommodates ships between 6,000dwt to 120,000dwt.
The project demanded a wide range of our skills in preliminary design, development of a tender package, choice of a marine contractor, tender evaluation, design, the pitch to the government and management and inspection of the construction process.
The jetty was designed to the local standards, BS standards as well as compliance with International Best Practices for Maritime Structures.
Throughout the construction phase, developing a close working relationship with the terminal operations team was crucial in order to minimise impact on existing jetties which remained fully open during development.
Health and safety rules were strictly adhered to across all the teams, with particular reference to potentially hazardous operations such as “hot works”, like welding etc.
It was particularly important to ensure the integrity of undersea cables – owned by the Singaporean government – which were close to the jetties and hence the area of construction. The contractor, under our guidance, monitored the barge anchors and during piling works to prevent them creeping into this sensitive area.
Together with Samsung C&T Corporation and Anatara Koh Pte Ltd, we provided offshore engineering consultancy and construction services for the Singapore LNG terminal secondary and tertiary berths at Jurong Island.
We have been providing engineering support to Muhibbah Engineering Bhd for the LNG Regasification Facilities Project, commencing from FEED for the LNG regas unit and the Island berth.
We were commissioned by Puma Energy to conduct a HAZOP Study to review the FEED safety design for the current North Vietnam Bitumen Terminal.
We were appointed to prepare the layout of two jetties at its Petroleum Storage Terminal at Banyan Basin, Singapore.
