The 12-inch-diameter 54-km (33-mile)
subsea pipeline which is to be constructed from BHP
Billiton’s Central Processing Platform in the Angostura
Field off East Coast Trinidad to Cove Eco-Industrial and Pipe manufacture is well underway with first shipment by manufacturers, Tennaris , arriving in April and taken to be concrete coated by Bredero Shaw which has mobilized and set up two coating plants at a site on Union Estate, La Brea . ~Completion date is scheduled for January 2011. |
(3) Submitted draft Operating and Maintaining Procedures KBR continued work on the Petrotrin Facility and during completed additional surveys. Four new dedicated tanks will be constructed at the Petrotrin West Refinery. Based on the proposed
construction of new petro-chemical and heavy
industrial plants, it is anticipated there will
be an accompanying increase in demand for gas of
350 - 450 MMscf/d by the year 2010.
However to accommodate this increase, NGC
will need to expand its transmission network in
an area where there is no pipeline
infrastructure namely the north-east coast of NGC has entered into gas supply contracts with BHP Billiton, EOG Resources and BG. BHPB will supply 230 MMscf/d from its Central Processing Platform in the Angostura field while EOG will supply 110 MMscf/d from its new Toucan platform. NGC will therefore construct
a 94-km (58-mile) pipeline from BHP’s Angostura
field to connect into its BUD Slug Catcher at
Abyssinia, south-east To date, man hours spent on the project were 94,558 MHs without loss time incident. |

The project expended 23,469 accident /incident free man-hours bringing the figure to date for the project to 67,839 man-hours without accident or incident. Design contractors, Kellogg/Brown & Root (KBR), achieved the following:-
(1)
Completed the Process Design ,the
control Systems designs, HAZOPS and SIL and the piping
designs for the (2) Carried Electrical completion to 75% |
