Eversendai Offshore completes keel laying for jack-up liftboats in United Arab Emirates
Posted on January 16, 2015, Friday

KUCHING: Eversendai Corporation Bhd’s wholly-owned subsidiary Eversendai Offshore RMC FZE (Eversendai Offshore) has recently completed the keel laying for two units of self-propelled jack-up liftboats.
The company in a statement yesterday said this signifies the formal recognition for the start of vessels’ construction even though fabrication of the modules may have commenced months before.
Eversendai Offshore said its vessels are largely built in a series of pre-fabricated complete hull sections rather than being built around a single keel.
Meanwhile, the company noted the event recognised as “keel laying” is the first joining of modular components, or the lowering of the first module into place in the building dock.
Eversendai Offshore revealed that the dual keel laying ceremony was held at its waterfront yard facility in RAK Maritime City, Ras Al Khaimah, United Arab Emirates.
The ceremony marked the second major milestone for the two newly built self-propelled jack-ups, respectively named ‘Aryan’ and ‘Arjun’ and scheduled for delivery in 2016 after the premier steel-cutting ceremony in October 2014.
Eversendai Group’s executive chairman and group managing director, Tan Sri AK Nathan said: “We are pleased to note our progress in executing this project as it substantiates our decision to venture into the oil and gas (O&G), petrochemical and process plant construction sectors.
“We look forward to successfully completing this project whilst boosting our efforts and simultaneously intensifying our presence in O&G industry.”
He also said: “We are positive that all our efforts and initiatives that have been set in place would lead to more opportunities for the group to secure new contracts on a global scale.
“We anticipate our foray into this sector to be a significant contributor to Eversendai Group’s earnings in time to come.”
In the meantime, Eversendai Offshore’s senior management as well as representatives from the international classification society, DNV-GL were present to witness the keel laying of both jack-ups.
The company added the self-propelled jack-ups will each consist of a rectangular hull and four 95 metre truss type legs, each with an electric driven rack and pinion jacking system, which will allow the unit to jack up in water depths of up to a maximum of 70 metres.
Eversendai Offshore noted the liftboat’s primary operating capabilities will include a 300-tonne crane, dynamic positioning (DP-2) system, accommodation for a minimum of 150 personnel and is propelled by its own thrusters to a speed of five knots.

8% out of 100% is nothing.

hi all bros, I am actually looking for an internship opportunity in this field either the players or OnG support team as I am completing my degree in mechanical engineering. But have no idea where to start from,I thought perhaps I can ask for suggestion and guidance in here...
Any advices is so much appreciated.

thanks.

For piping?

The one with lowest bid.

Define the word 'nothing'.

Does Gas Malaysia come under O/G or just distribution?

Gas Malaysia is mainly handling distribution for industrial gas pipeline mainly for KVDT distribution, and also PGU gas pipeline. Gases supply by PGB Kerteh, and Gas Malaysia doing the distribution.

KVDT - Klang Valley Distribution Terminal. PGU - Peninsular Gas pipeline Unit.

Gas Malaysia main customer is for energy intensive user like TNB, Perwaja, steel mill, glove maker like Top Glove and Hartalega, etc

Industrial gases distributed by Gas Malaysia are different to specialty gases supplier like MOX Gas, Air Product, Linde, Southern Gas etc. Industrial gas by Gas Malaysia is propane and ethane gas, specialty gas like helium, CO2, O2, liquid nitrogen etc

This one I need to refer design practice (for process), usually just ask my PE to calculate, but for fire fighting system last time, i calculate myself (base on NFPA + design practice). For water can use hydraulic calculation

Hi, I have just graduated from Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP) taking Bachelor in Mechanical Engineering. My major is Materials and learnt Failure Analysis, NDT, Corrosion & NanoMaterials. I also have experienced 7 months internship at ARKEMA Lychee Project, Kerteh as a Trainee Project Engineer for ALGOTECH for Mechanical & Piping Department. Up to now I've sent more than 150 job applications (email & website) and only received 2 interview offers, one is SLB (managed until 1st stage only- group & individual) and Gas Malaysia Berhad (interview this Wednesday).


My concern is that, most o&g companies are now freezing hiring and downsizing and most job vacancies are for those with experience only and an engineer from a Client company recently told me, we need CABLE to get into o&g especially client. Even UTP grads don't get the opportunity to be hired that easily by PETRONAS anymore.


I want to ask the seniors here to guide me on what to do for now and what to plan ahead. By the way, I would really love it if managed to secure a job with client as I'm the kind of guy who likes to talk and manage and I've experienced working with contractor(ALGOTECH) and also in manufacturing/automotive during my Diploma with PROTON.So, would really like to venture into new area

Thank you for the help.

However i am a fresh grad my boss want me to do presentation on line sizing to test me lah.. that why im looking for literature to clearly understand b4 doing presentation..

Hi,

I'm an electrical engineering graduate specializing in electronics/instrumentation. I've been offered by Shell Trading (downstream) and Petronas (PGB) for their Rapid project, so I need to make decision when the offer letter is out by the end of the month.

I'm wondering which one offers the better package in term of exposure and career development ? I think Shell offers a more diversed environment but will be less technical, as for Petronas it will be focused locally but the job scope is very technical.

Can someone with experience shed some light on this ?

Many thanks !
