HOUSTON – Chevron Australia Pty Ltd. has contracted Baker Hughes to deliver subsea compression manifold technology for the Jansz-Io Compression project.

Driven by Baker Hughes’ Subsea Connect early engagement approach, the company will provide a subsea compression manifold structure including module and foundation, as well as the latest optimized version of its horizontal clamp connector system and subsea controls.

“We continue to transform the core of our subsea business by delivering reliable life-of-field solutions designed to drive efficiency and productivity,” said Graham Gillies, vice president of Asia Pacific at Baker Hughes. “Our Subsea Connect business model has enabled early engagement, allowing us to combine the best of our technology with engineering and project management localization.”

The business model brings together life-of-field expertise and technical capability, which is said to enable customers to accelerate time to production, reduce total cost of ownership, and maximize recovery over the life of the project.

The Jansz-Io gas field is about 200 km (124 mi) offshore northwestern Australia, at water depths of approximately 1,400 m (4,593 ft).

The Jansz-Io field is a part of the Chevron-operated Gorgon natural gas facility. Baker Hughes has provided 23 subsea trees, 12 subsea manifolds, 45 subsea structures, and a subsea production control system for the facility.

The Gorgon natural gas facility is a joint venture between the Australian subsidiaries of Chevron (47.3%), ExxonMobil (25%), Shell (25%), Osaka Gas (1.25%), Tokyo Gas (1%), and JERA (0.417%).
