Oil and gas industry services provider McDermott has secured an offshore contract for the Kasawari CCS project in Malaysia.
Under the terms of the contract, McDermott’s responsibilities include the transportation and installation of a 138km pipeline, a 15,000-tonne CCS platform jacket and a bridge that will connect to the existing central processing platform.
The contract was awarded by Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering, which is responsible for the engineering, procurement, construction, installation (EPCI) and commissioning work for the project.

Upon completion, it is expected to have the capacity to abate 3.3 million tonnes of CO₂ flaring emissions annually.
