Jackson Lane Pty Ltd was engaged as
accommodation design sub-contractor by Williams Brothers / CMPS
Australia for the preliminary and detailed design of a 14 man
accommodation module for the Kutubu Platform offshore New Guinea. The
module is a conventional steel framed and braced structure having two
accommodation decks and a helideck. Various alternatives for layout and
construction techniques were investigated at the design stage.
The quarters provides permanent accommodation for 14 men and includes a
control room, recreation and messing facilities. The platform functions
as an offshore loading terminal for crude oil transported by submarine
pipeline from the onshore Kutubu field operated by OIL SEARCH. After
an initial service life of some 15 years we were recently engaged to
survey the accommodation and scope the work for a major mid life upgrade
to be performed in 2010. |
