Larsen & Toubro announced in August 2011 that it bagged orders worth $889 million in the hydrocarbon sector from the UAE and Thailand.
Two orders worth $639 million were from the UAE- one from the Abu Dhabi Gas Industries for its Habshan-Ruwais-Shuweihat gas pipeline project valued at $189 million. This contract involved engineering, procurement and commissioning 123 km of pipelines.
The second order for $450 million is an EPC contract awarded to L&T Hydrocarbon's Upstream Business Group, from ADMA-OPCO, a subsidiary of ADNOC and a major producer of oil & gas in the UAE. The early production project Phase-1 of /Nasr & Umm Lulu Field Development Projects include four wellhead towers and a manifold tower platform, connecting bridges and associated sub-sea pipelines.
L&T is currently executing many pipeline projects in GCC countries for clients such as ADCO and Qatar Petroleum.
The company also bagged a $250 million contract from PTTEP International, a subsidiary of PTT Public Co, Thailand, for its Zawtika Development Project, Phase-1A.
The project consists of three wellhead topsides and three jackets weighing 7000-8000 tonnes for installation at a depth of 130-150 metres under water, besides 21 km of sub-sea pipelines. The project facilities are part of an overall field development, and will be integrated with other platform facilities on the field. PTTEP International is state-owned oil & gas major, and among the largest corporations in Thailand.
L&T has in-house engineering and fabrication facilities at three locations, including the GCC region at Sohar (Oman) and its own heavy-lift and pipe-laying vessel, LTS-3000.
