EnerMech’s cranes and lifting division has benefited from a £85 million-plus ($105m) uplift to its order book with a series of contract wins, extensions and renewals.
The Aberdeen-based mechanical engineering group has consolidated its position as a major international cranes services provider, strengthening its reputation in the Caspian region and extending its reach by winning new work in the Gulf States, Far East and the Caribbean.
In Azerbaijan, BP Exploration (Caspian Sea) have renewed a contract which EnerMech has held since 2010 for up to a further five years. Crane operations, maintenance and inspection services for 16 BP offshore pedestal cranes and two new platforms on the Shah Deniz 2 project are included in the contract. EnerMech has also undertaken to employ an Azeri-only nationalized workforce for the contract term which also includes the provision of spare parts, repair and refurbishment and training.
In Qatar, EnerMech has secured exclusivity for the provision of crane maintenance services to the Al Shaheen Field. As part of its integrated services approach, EnerMech will also offer process, pipeline and umbilicals, valves inspection and repair, hydraulics and training services.
A three-year deal to provide crane operation and maintenance services to Daewoo International E&P on the Shwe Gas field in the Bay of Bengal, marks EnerMech’s first long term contract award offshore Myanmar.
A major breakthrough has been made in Trinidad & Tobago where EnerMech have been awarded a crane operation and maintenance contract by an international operator and a new base has been established on the island from which EnerMech will offer all its service lines in line with their standard approach to entering a new market.
In the North Sea, Nexen Petroleum U.K. Limited have awarded EnerMech a five-year crane operation and maintenance contract covering the Buzzard, Scott and Golden Eagle platforms.
Also in the UKCS, contracts first awarded to EnerMech as far back as 2006 by two major oil and gas operators have been renewed for a further three years and EnerMech will continue to provide crane maintenance, mechanic and operator crews, spare parts and equipment inspection services on a combined total of 11 platforms.
