FOR ANTONINI GROUP A NEW EPC CONTRACT IN THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA
Gruppo Antonini, operating globally in the Oil & Gas sector for over 80 years, has secured a new contract for offshore EPCIC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Installation, and Commissioning) activities in the Mediterranean. This project represents approximately 25% of the total value, amounting to 300 million euros, and has been awarded to the consortium formed by Gruppo Antonini, Rosetti Marino Spa, and Kerry Project Logistics (Italia) Spa, by Mellitah Oil & Gas BV - Libyan Branch (a partnership between the National Oil Corporation of Libya and Eni North Africa).
The project involves the construction of a new gas production platform, with an overall weight exceeding 20,000 tons, to be installed off the Libyan coast in the Bahr Essalam offshore field. Gruppo Antonini will handle the onshore activities, including the construction of the living quarters and piles, as well as the commissioning and startup of the facilities.
The WHPA platform will include a JACKET weighing approximately 7,000 tons, 8 PILES weighing about 5,000 tons, a TOPSIDE with FLARE weighing around 8,000 tons, a LIVING QUARTER weighing approximately 800 tons, and a FMWR (Fast Moving Workover Rig) with a preliminary weight of over 2,000 tons. The project is expected to be completed by the second quarter of 2028.
This significant order is the second one obtained by Mellitah Oil & Gas BV from the Gruppo Antonini. Last summer, the Company bid worth over 200 million euros for the Sabratha Platform Compression Module Project, a compression module intended to be installed on the existing SABRATHA gas platform, 42 meters above sea level and 120 km off the Libyan coast.
