KBR - Production Plant, FPSO and Pipeline Engineering

With over 70 years of experience in the offshore market, KBR designs, builds and manages complex projects from concept to completion for a wide range of clients on a global basis. Our portfolio includes technologically-complex projects such as developing oil and gas reserves in deepwater offshore, Arctic or other remote regions.

PRODUCTION PLANT AND FPSO DESIGN

Having designed more than 35% of the world's offshore production plants, KBR's expertise comprises upstream projects ranging from fixed structures and floating production facilities to subsea developments, semi-submersibles designed by our GVA subsidiary, umbilicals, risers, pipelines and flowlines. KBR is a world leader in Floating, Production, Storage and Off-loading vessels (FPSOs), designing nine of them and performing the front-end engineering and design on several others.

KBR has also executed numerous studies to locate LNG and regasification facilities offshore, generally for associated and stranded gas reserves. These studies include platform applications (jackets, gravity-based and sacrificial barges), as well as FPSOs.

HYDROCARBON-PRODUCTION PLANT ENGINEERING AND CONSULTANCY

KBR's services cover the entire spectrum of hydrocarbon production, from the wellhead to downstream facilities. These services include studies and consulting through KBR and our Granherne subsidiary, front-end engineering, detail engineering, procurement, program management, construction, installation, commissioning and start-up, delivering breakthrough results and helping our customers derive the greatest value from their assets.

HIGH-PRESSURE / HIGH-TEMPERATURE PIPELINES

As the search for hydrocarbons heads into water depths approaching 10,000ft, KBR is creating solutions that overcome the logistical, technological and environmental challenges of ultra-deepwater and remote frontier regions.

We draw on our portfolio of numerous deepwater projects, including subsea system FEED and technical services for deepwater FPSOs, risers and flowlines. We also have a proven track-record of excellence in pipelines and are at the cutting-edge of today's technological advances, including deepwater and High-Pressure / High-Temperature (HP / HT) pipelines for marginal field developments.

INTEGRATED PROJECT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

As a global leader in software innovation and in the integration of material, document and procurement management, KBR's proprietary Integrated Project Management System (IPMS) has been recognized as one of the best in the industry. The IPMS allows total management of project materials with full documentation, from early identification during design through to procurement, shipping and installation.

ISO 9001 AND 14001 CERTIFICATION

Creating an organizational climate that practices safe behavior, rewards safety performance and minimizes environmental and social impact is important when choosing an engineering, procurement and construction contractor.

In addition to being ISO 9001 certified, KBR is also ISO 14001 certified, signifying our adherence to the strict requirements on the ISO environmental and safety management system. KBR also has a global integrated certification in quality, safety and environment; we are the only engineering, procurement and construction company in the world to receive this certification. We are creating our legacy by training local workforces at projects throughout the world.
