Onshore Oil & Gas

Project: Uganda Kingfisher Oil Field EPC3 Production Facilities

Time of completion: June 2025

Project introduction: 

Client Name: CNOOC Uganda Limited

Project Location: Albert Lake, Uganda

Contract Type: EPCI

Scope of work: FEED, EPCI of 5 Well Pads, Central Process Facilities(capacity of 40,000 bbls/day), Pipelines and etc.

Project highlights: 

1. COOEC Plays a leading role in design, optimize design solutions, introduce the “VSP” management system, improve management efficiency, effectively solve the impact of cross regional, time difference, and multi-party participation in the project, and ensure the normal operation of the project. Through data collection and 3D model integration, the VSP system can provide full engineering stage data support and model support for the subsequent construction and operation of intelligent oilfields in Uganda.

2. COOEC makes full efforts to practice localization, build the “localization” brand of CNOOC, and enhance the company’s overseas influence.

  The IU contract promises a localization ratio of up to 66%;

  Directly or indirectly employing over 1,000 local workers to promote community economic development;

  Build roads for the community, donate books, etc., and establish a win-win community relationship;

  Localization work has received recognition from PAU multiple times.

3. As of May 23, 2024, the milestone of total 3 million safe working hours has been successfully achieved.

Project: Zhuhai LNG Terminal Project Phase II 

Time of completion: September 2024

Project introduction: Zhuhai LNG Terminal Project Phase II is expanded upon the foundation of the phase I project, with an expansion volume of 3.5 million tons per year. After expansion, the Zhuhai LNG terminal will have a total capacity of 7 million tons per year. COOEC undertakes the EPCIC of 5 full-containment concrete LNG storage tanks with a capacity of 270,000 cubic meter each.

Project highlights: Zhuhai LNG Terminal Project Phase II is the first storage tank with the largest capacity in the world of 270,000 cubic meters, which is undertaken by COOEC and independently designed by CGTank® core storage tank technology of CNOOC. The project is located in an area with a high seismic fortification level, currently making it one of the most complex geological conditions and the most challenging seismic design for liquefied natural gas storage tank projects in China.

Project: Tangshan LNG Terminal Project Phase I

Time of completion: June 2023

Project introduction: Tangshan LNG Terminal Project is designed with a receiving unloading capacity of 12 million tons per year. The project is divided into three phases, with the 1st phase of four 200,000 cubic meter LNG storage tanks and related supporting facilities. The scope of work includes design management, procurement, construction, installation, commissioning, acceptance, and other related services for jetty 3#, the upper facilities of the trestle, the four 200,000 cubic meter full containment concrete LNG storage tanks, and the terminal supporting facilities .

Project highlights: Tangshan LNG Terminal Project achieved an impressive performance of 8.67 million man-hours without any accidents. Through initiatives such as the innovative fully automatic welding technology for the inner tanks of LNG storage tanks, the project was successfully commissioned, achieving four major breakthroughs.

  After connecting the unloading arms of the first ship, the low-pressure and high-pressure compressors were successfully started in 45 hours to achieve BOG recovery, and the flare was extinguished within 59 hours. Both the BOG recovery startup time and flare extinguish time broke industry records.

 The pre-cooling process of the 3# storage tank took only 41 hours, creating the shortest record in the history of pre-cooling of 200,000 cubic meter LNG storage tank in China.

 The ship fulfilled padding LNG into the the largest diameter (42″) of low-pressure export header pipeline domestic during in port time, making it the first LNG terminal in China to have the conditions for liquid export before departure of the first barge.

  It takes totally 122 hours from the first ship’s berthing to departure, a significant reduction of 214 hours compared to the original plan.

Project: KONIAMBO Nickel Mine Project

Time of completion: November 2010

Project introduction: The owner of this nickel mine project is KONIAMBO Nickel SAS. The mine was designed and constructed as a modular plant and COOEC undertook the shop design, procurement and onshore construction of 17 modules with total weight around 40,000 tons, among which the largest module weighs more than 5,000 tons. These modules were all constructed on the non-slipway soft foundation at Qingdao Yard and delivered in four shipments to the New Caledonia Island (8,334km from Qingdao) for assembly.

Project highlights: During the execution, COOEC completed large-scale lateral loadout of modules using SPMTs, successfully assembled the modules delivered to the project site and used the DNV software in dynamic risk management for the first time.

Project: SHELL SDA Project

Time of completion: August 2017

Project introduction: SHELL SDA Project is located in PERNIS Factory in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, and involves 10 modules in total, namely, 5 core process modules and 5 pipe rack modules. It is 6,272 tons in total, including 4,800m2 heat spraying aluminum and 32,000m steam hot oil heat-tracing. Almost all the pipelines involve heat insulation and European standards are adopted.

Project highlights: The successful handover of the project opens the door to the European market for COOEC.

Project: LNG Canada Project

Time of completion: March 2023

Project introduction: The Canada LNG project, located in Kitimat, British Columbia, Canada, is the energy project that receives the largest investment in Canada’s history. Two LNG trains with a total annual production capacity of 13.0 million tons are planned to be put into operation in Phase I. COOEC undertakes the construction of 35 modules with a total weight of about 178,830 tons for Phase I project, including 19 core process modules, among which the largest module weighs 10,000 tons.

Project highlights: LNG Canada Project is the first project whose core process modules and pipe gallery modules are constructed in an integrated way, maximizing the degree of integration, reducing the workload of on-site installation by half, and facilitating progress control. COOEC has creatively adopted the techniques for dual-system hoisting of heavy deck panels and final assembly and closure using SPMTs and employed the new NBG (no backing gas) welding technique on a large scale for the first time in the world. It also has developed innovative technologies for the lifting and 4D visual construction of super-large structures and greatly improved its capability in integrated construction of super-large LNG modular plants.
