Project Details

Background

Kumul Petroleum Holdings Limited, through its pipeline subsidiary Kumul Petroleum (Pipeline) Limited (the “Company”), has awarded the Pre-Front End Engineering and Design (the “Pre-FEED”) phase (Phase 1b) of the Western Pipeline Project Gulf Pipeline Extension (the “GPE”) to Granherne KBR as part of its commitment to develop the Papua New Guinea Western Province fields.

For this purpose, Granherne KBR has team up with its Malaysian engineering alliance partner, MMC Oil & Gas Engineering, to undertake the pipeline design work for the previous Concept Select Study. A significant body of supporting work will also be referenced from the prior work phases, primarily:

  • KBR (Singapore) for Kumul : Kikori Energy Park Concept Study (2017)
  • Advisian for CPP: Western Pipeline Project Pre FEED Study (2017).
