Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering Holdings Bhd (MMHE) has secured a subcontract from Uzma Bhd worth RM43 million to convert a mobile offshore drilling unit (MODU) into a mobile water injection facility (WIF).
The project involves demolition, refurbishment, life extension, and conversion of the MODU, which will be deployed offshore Sabah by 2025 to support enhanced oil recovery.
The facility, equipped with Uzma’s advanced water injection technology, aims to optimize reservoir pressure, boost oil recovery, and minimize environmental impact.
This marks MMHE’s first floater conversion project for Uzma.
“During its conversion at MMHE West Yard in Pasir Gudang, Johor, Malaysia, the MODU will be equipped with Uzma’s mobile WIF, a state-of-the-art solution for efficient and sustainable water management in oil and gas operations,” said MMHE and Uzma in a joint statement.
“This system is designed to optimize reservoir pressure, enhance oil recovery rates, and reduce environmental impact,” he added.
