EnCana Corporation is proposing to develop its Deep Panuke gas prospect located offshore Nova Scotia, approximately 44 km to the West of Sable Island. The proposed development plan comprises three new platforms - a production platform (DPP), a utilities
and quarters platform (UQP) and a wellhead platform (WHP) - with two interconnecting bridges linking them to each other. Up to 6 wells will provide production from the Deep Panuke development. Gas will be delivered to shore via one new export pipeline,
of 24" NPS after processing offshore. The onshore landfall site for the export line will be in the Goldboro region.
EnCana Corporation has appointed Accent-Saipem Energy Joint Venture to provide the Engineering Design study for this project.
During this phase we are seeking qualified companies for the following scope of supply:
WELLHEAD PLATFORM TOPSIDES FABRICATION.
SCOPE OF WORK The fabrication of the Wellhead Platform Topsides from client, multi-discipline, design drawings through to loadout as summarised below: -
Receipt, storage and preservation of free-issue materials and equipment.
Supply of bulk materials (as required)
Construction engineering (temporary works)
Production of working drawings as necessary using client supplied PDMS model and as-building.
Fabrication of all disciplines including Structural, Piping, Electrical, Instrumentation, HVAC, Architectural, Loss Control, Protective Coating and any Passive Fireproofing.
Testing, Mechanical Completion and Commissioning activities.
Weighing, Loadout and Seafastening onto client provided seagoing barge.
The Wellhead Platform Topsides is to be a steel structure with principle trusses on a 20m square x 9m high with an installed weight, currently estimated at 800 tonnes. It will be fitted out primarily with clad carbon steel flowlines, well fluid
manifolds, hydraulic power packs and tubing for Xmas tree control, E&I rooms, platform crane and safety equipment.
