In 2017, Geocean contracted Jumbo for the Moheshkhali Project, a floating LNG import terminal.

 

The terminal is being developed off the shores of Moheshkhali Island in the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh. It will be the country's first LNG import terminal and is expected to help secure the future provision of energy for Bangladesh.

FSRU and Shore Connection

The Moheshkhali floating LNG import terminal will include a Floating Storage and Regasification Unit (FSRU), a subsea buoy system and a subsea pipeline, which will connect the terminal to an onshore pipeline system.

Installation of Suction Piles, PLEM & Pad

Jumbo was contracted to transport and install the mooring system for the FSRU. This involved installing 8 suction piles/anchors, 1 Pipe Line End Terminal (PLEM) and 1 Pad as well as scouring protection.

Mobilisation began in mid-December 2017 with the installation execution going ahead in early January 2018. Works on the project have now been completed by Jumbo, which deployed the Jumbo Javelin for the works.
