Strohm‘s Thermoplastic Composite Pipe (TCP) jumpers have recently been installed at the Deepwater Sabah project, located offshore Malaysia. Contractor McDermott successfully carried out this installation. They performed the work on behalf of an unnamed international operator, marking a significant development for the project.
Recent Offshore Installation
Deepwater Sabah Project
The Deepwater Sabah project saw the deployment of Strohm’s specialized TCP jumpers. McDermott, a prominent contractor in the energy sector, executed the installation phase. This operation supports an international operator’s activities in the deepwater region off Malaysia’s coast.
This particular installation represents a notable milestone. It signifies the second time Strohm’s TCP product has been utilized within Malaysian waters. The advanced composite pipe technology aims to enhance efficiency and reliability in challenging offshore environments.
Previous Malaysian Deployment
West Lutong Field Precedent
Strohm’s initial foray into the Malaysian market occurred in 2017. At that time, the company deployed a TCP Flowline and a static riser. This earlier installation took place at the shallow water West Lutong field.
Operator Petronas commissioned the 2017 project. That successful deployment established a precedent for Strohm’s technology in the region. Consequently, the Deepwater Sabah installation builds upon this earlier success and growing confidence in TCP solutions.
Advancing Offshore Energy Solutions
The repeated adoption of Strohm’s TCP products underscores their relevance in offshore energy development. These composite pipes offer robust and lightweight alternatives to traditional steel pipes. Their properties make them well-suited for demanding subsea applications, including deepwater and shallow water projects.
Such installations contribute to the ongoing evolution of offshore infrastructure. Companies continually seek innovative solutions to optimize operations and reduce costs. Strohm’s continued presence in Malaysia highlights the country’s role as a key region for energy exploration and production.
