Engineering consultancy Add Energy has won a contract worth almost £1.4million for a BP project off the coast of Egypt.
The Aberdeen based firm has been awarded a maintenance build contract worth more than £1 million to work on the supermajor’s West Nile Delta development.
Add Energy will carry out the development of a full asset maintenance build including the delivery of an asset register and functional hierarchy build, equipment criticality assignment, development of maintenance strategies for critical and non-critical equipment, job plans and procedures, critical sparing and BoMs development.
The Add Energy project team will be operating from Aberdeen, and will require the project manager and principal consultant to travel to the BP WND project offices in London over the course of the 18-month project.
Dr Damon Bowler will oversee the 18-month project.
With over 25 years of asset management experience, Dr Bowler has worked in the oil and gas industry in various roles, and has a diverse range of technical, business and management skills.
This includes over 15 years working for Shell in process safety, operational excellence, reliability, maintenance, operations and projects, within onshore and offshore production assets, gas plants and LNG.
Peter Adam, executive vice president of Add Energy, said: “As we continue to work closely with BP, we are delighted to have been selected for this project in Egypt. We believe that Add Energy’s wealth of experience in delivering this type of work in amalgamation with our ability to deliver cost effective solutions within our current Global Maintenance Centralization project, has positioned Add Energy as the most suitable contractor for this job.
“We have built a global library of maintenance strategies and procedures based on best practice and reliability data, which, combined with lessons learnt from previous maintenance build contracts, will enhance this project and support the operator in getting best value for money.”
Work is now under way at the site with the development due for completion in March 2018.
