Technip has secured a €100m contract from Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) to build an onshore terminal at Odalarevu in Andhra Pradesh, India.
The terminal with a capacity of six million standard cubic metres a day (MMSCMD) is part of the Integrated Development of Vashishta (VA) & S1 fields, which are situated between 30km and 35km off the Amalapuram coast in the KG Basin, off the East Coast of India.
Under the contract, Technip will provide basic design, detailed engineering, procurement, fabrication, inspection and testing, and installation services.
The scope of the contract also includes pre-commissioning and commissioning of the new onshore terminal facilities, which will be integrated to the existing terminal.
The hydrocarbons extracted from VA and S1 deep water offshore fields will be transported to the planned onshore oil and gas terminal for processing.
The facility features a slug catcher for well fluid separation, gas compressors, high-integrity pressure protection system, glycol dehydration, dew point control, mono ethylene glycol regeneration and gas metering system.
