Malaysian floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) provider Yinson has won a short-term extension for its FPSO PTSC Lam Son operating offshore Vietnam.

Yinson said that its Vietnamese joint venture (JV) PTSC AP had entered the eighth addendum to extend the tenure of the BBC Interim Contract. It will extend by a period of 45 days, from 16 January to 29 February.

Yinson and PetroVietnam Technical Services Corporation (PTSC) own the JV, holding a 49% and 51% interest, respectively.

Valued at $2.24m, the eighth addendum will not impact the share capital and shareholding structure of the company.

FPSO PTSC Lam Son is a double hull vessel, which is designed to have a service life of 15 years. With seven off-cargo tanks, it has a crude oil storage capacity of 350,000 barrels.

The company said in a statement: “None of the directors and/or major shareholders of the company or persons connected to them have any interest, direct or indirect, in the eighth addendum.
