???? 据2月23日Trade Arabia消息：意大利Saipem公司已获得一份价值17亿美元的合同，用于开发位于卡塔尔东北部North Field生产可持续性海上项目。

????工作范围包括用于天然气开采和运输的各种海上设施的工程采购、建筑和安装，包括平台，支撑和连接结构、海底电缆和防腐内部包覆管道。该工作还包括管道的退役和对现有海上设施的其他重大调整。

????管道铺设和吊装作业将由DE HE船在水深约65米的地方执行，利用Saipem的高端耐腐蚀覆层管道焊接技术，以满足客户卡塔尔天然气公司严格的质量要求。

????该项目旨在将早期气田产能提高至每年1.1亿吨。

????这个新合同是Saipem公司自2018年随着Barzan项目返回该国并接近完成以来，授予该公司此系列项目中的最新一个。

????Saipem已经在执行WHP12N导管架项目，该项目于2020年7月授予，是北部油田生产可持续性海上项目开发的一部分。

????此外，卡塔尔天然气公司还将海上出口管道和北部油田生产可持续性管道项目的相关陆上工程合同授予Saipam公司。

????Saipem E&C Offshore部门首席运营官Stefano Porcari评论道:“Saipem在卡塔尔处于有利地位，并积极执行各种合同，卡塔尔是我们的关键市场，预计在不久的将来会有几项海外投资取得进展。卡塔尔天然气公司的此项收购巩固了我们在天然气行业的地位，巩固了我们在能源转型中的战略作用，并表明了我们对Saipem成功执行和交付具有挑战性项目的经验和成熟能力的信心。此外，它还确认了XSIGHT部门采用的早期参与模型的相关性和有效性，该部门最近提前签订了整个NFPS开发计划的前端工程设计合同。”

????Saipem to develop Qatar offshore gas project for $1.7 billion

????Saipem has been awarded a $1.7-billion contract to develop the North Field Production Sustainability Offshore Project, located offshore North-East of Qatar.

????The scope of work encompasses the engineering, procurement, construction and installation of various offshore facilities for the extraction and transportation of natural gas, including platforms, supporting and connecting structures, subsea cables and anticorrosion internally cladded pipelines. The work also includes the decommissioning of a pipeline and other significant modifications to existing offshore facilities.

????The pipe-laying and lifting operations will be executed by the DE HE vessel in water depths of approximately 65 m, leveraging on Saipem’s high-end welding technology for corrosion resistant cladded pipelines to meet the client Qatargas’s stringent quality requirements.

????The project aims at increasing the early gas field production capacity to 110 million tonnes per annum.

????This new contract is the latest of a string of projects awarded to Saipem since its return to the country in 2018 with the Barzan project, nearing completion.

????Saipem is already executing the WHP12N Jacket project, awarded in July 2020, which is part of the North Field Production Sustainability Offshore Project development.

????This new contract is included in December 31, 2020, backlog.

????Additionally, Qatargas has also awarded Saipam the contractual package regarding offshore export pipelines and related onshore works of the North Field Production Sustainability Pipelines Project.

????Stefano Porcari, Saipem E&C Offshore Division COO, commented: “Saipem is well positioned and actively executing various contracts in Qatar, a key market for us with several offshore investments expected to progress in the near future. This acquisition by Qatargas consolidates our position in the gas sector, confirms our strategic role in the energy transition and represents a token of confidence in Saipem's experience and proven ability to successfully execute and deliver challenging projects. Furthermore, it also confirms the relevance and effectiveness of the early engagement model adopted through our division XSIGHT, which recently concluded, ahead of time, the Front-End Engineering Design contract for the whole NFPS development programme”.
