ABB has secured a $33 million contract with QGC to provide maintenance services for the Queensland Curtis Liquefied Natural Gas (QCLNG) project. The project, located on Curtis Island near Gladstone, is anticipated to be the world’s first to convert gas from coal-seam into liquefied natural gas.
The contract value is $33 million over four years with potential for extending the service term up to a period of 10 years. ABB is to provide comprehensive services including an on-site team to maintain ABB’s Extended Automation System 800xA Integrated Control and Safety Systems (ICSS). The contract also covers spare parts management for QCLNG’s upstream collection and transportation facility as well as for the midstream liquefaction and export facility.
In 2011, ABB was awarded a $58 million order from QGC to provide, as main automation contractor (MAC), integrated automation, safety and telecommunications systems and related equipment for the upstream coal-seam gas project.
