KUALA LUMPUR: OceanMight Sdn Bhd (OceanMight), a subsidiary company of KKB Engineering Bhd (KKB), achieved another significant milestone with the successful load out and sail away of a wellhead platform (topside) for Petronas' D18 Phase 2 oil drilling project on October 14, 2019 following D18 substructure's successful installation on October 4, 2019.

Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd (PCSB) awarded the contract for the engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning (EPCC) of the wellhead platform for D18 Phase 2 project to OceanMight in early 2018.

“The successful delivery of an earlier EPCC D28 project and now D18 project and with Zero LTI and a combined 800,000 manhours is another achievement as it marked OceanMight's bold entry into the ever challenging oil and gas industry,” the group said in a press statement yesterday.

OceanMight is one of the few major offshore module and structure EPCC player for major fabrication licensed by Petronas since 2013.

“Being the sixth contract successfully open bidded and secured by OceanMight and near completion, this achievement further strengthens KKB's progressive diversification plan and is another milestone to its strong 57-year history of business accomplishment in Sarawak, Malaysia.”

The D18 Project was executed by OceanMight at its state-ofthe-art fabrication Kuching yard, equipped with a dedicated 30,000MT load out jetty sited along Sarawak River, on a 70acre land at Jalan Bako Kuching, Sarawak.
