The other day I was looking at jobs and MMHE is now recruiting for "windfarm fabrication". I mean seriously? Is this a sign of desperation? Are they even equipped with the facilities/expertise to fabricate windfarms? Is the skills/knowledge from offshore oil and gas platforms transferable to windfarm fabrication?

Can search for this job on Glassdoor. Got my head scratching.

I believe MMHE is vying to fabricate the structural support frame and foundation of the wind farm. It’s nothing complicated fabricating the support structures. It’s like a mini shallow jacket. It may use bucket foundation which is a typical cylindrical closed plates structure.

The windfarm blades and the associated machineries will be sourced from the specialist vendors.

Malaysia BOLEH laaa!

Guys I was looking into EPCIC for CPPs and I came across Petronas' outlook for 2018-2020. They say in their low case scenario, got 1/2/1 CPPs for 2018/19/20. And in high case scenario, it is 1/3/1. In addition they also have a MOPU sanctioned for next year.

The above refers to first steel cut dates.

So I assume for 2018 it is Bokor CPP, and one of the 2019 ones are Pegaga CPP. The MOPU should be for K5.

What then could the other one or two CPPs be for 2019, and what's the CPP for 2020? The 2019 confirmed CPP is a very light/small CPP, while the 2020 confirmed CPP is a super huge CPP. Is Kasawari the one that will required a super huge CPP? If indeed that matches the Kasawari specs, then what is the "small" CPP confirmed for 2019? What could the "mystery" new medium sized CPP be as well?

Appreciate for insights from you sifus here!

You guys may refer here (pg 39): http://www.petronas.com.my/investor-relati...202018-2020.pdf

Another CPP could be K5.

Yes Kasawari is huge CPP.

REPSOL (previously TML) has recently given out VSS to selected staff; mostly targeting veteran staff whose age ranging from 55 plus!

I’m not surprised if REPSOL sells off its Msian business. The current MGMT doesn’t seem to be looking at expanding its business in Msia.

So far, on Operator side, only Sapura E&P, Mubadala and PTTEP is actively hiring.

But they really looking for experienced personnel, 15 years above.
*
Actually Petronas is also “silently” recruiting experienced upstream engineers. But you need to know someone in the inside of job availability since they would rather hire people that they already knew. But paywise is quite disappointing, they really squeeze ppl till dry. I doubt that is a right strategy since the engineers will certainly jump to another operator when offered of higher pay. When platform developments take off again in the near future, demand for experienced engineers will shoot up. If Petronas keeps its low pay scheme for experienced engineers, they will eventually be in the losing end when they start to lose those engineers to other operators.

Mubadala is smarter. I know they don’t take advantage of the current low job situation. They pay quite reasonable to the engineers they just hired. They thought of project team long term stability.

Is there a formal line in your contract which will prohibit people from jumping from PCSB to other upstream players?
*
None.

But normally you want to complete your contract and not resign half way through a project. That will hurt your reputation if you quit half way your contract period. Oil and gas is a small community. Everyone knows each other.

I’m curious to know - at which stage of the project did they decide to stop - Conceptual / FEED ?
*
My guess is the development is stopped at end of FEED. They should have completed the FID prior to detailed design and found out it’s not economical based on a certain crude oil price.

But there had been a few rare instances when the whole platform development was stopped at the end of detailed design. One real case in the 90s when Occidental decided to ditch its Msian business and sold its interests to another operator. They’ve done detailed design of a CPP. When Shell took over the field, the CPP was reduced to being a normal wellhead platform! I bet that development by Occidental was the most costly theoretical detailed design of a CPP!

Petronas will not allow M & S to combine since there will be no competition for large offshore platforms projects. S is private driven while M is like a teenager in the fabrication industry that never seems to be able to grow up.

But M has built far more technical and complicated structures, such as the Gumusut Kakap semi submersible and the Malikai TLP. So how’s that?

M could never got those kinds of fabrication of mega scale without the insistence of Petronas. I let the quality of the jobs speak for themselves.

But what does that having to do with forcing S to merge with M? It was a very unwise decision to let M swallow SIME Darby last time because the latter was a much better fabricator if big platforms. SIME major screw ups were not in fabrication part but in the T&I part which they had no experiences.

Brent crude crossed the resistance level of USD80 today.

It’s expected to hit USD100 with the US sanctions on Iran. It will go up faster if EU countries are forced to follow US sanction on Iran. I pity the Iranians for having to be the catalyst for oil price hike!

Talking abt market picking up, I'm hearing that MMHE might finally win their first heavy engineering contract for the year.

Apparently it's for a 1500MT water separation and treatment processing module for the Pluto platform in Australia. I wonder, how significant would something like this be, in terms of contract size? RM100mil? RM500mil? Or more?

Also MMHE is gonna get LOI from Saudi Aramco to be included in their list of LTAs (in partnership with TechnipFMC). Sapura is also going to get the LOI. Total four new additions to the existing 5 LTAs. This should be a good thing for the Malaysian offshore fabrication industry, no?

Brent crude fell below USD70; now is USD66.

All is still not well in oil & gas.
