Mech-Tool Engineering Ltd (MTE), one of the UK’s leading product manufacturer and global supplier of fire, blast and heat hazard solutions, has secured a contract to deliver seven Remote Instrument Enclosures (RIE’s) to TengizChevrOil, one of the world’s largest oil and gas production projects.
The British company reported that the contract comes on the back of the Teesside based company already successfully securing – and well underway in delivering - its largest contract to date, worth £37m, on the TengizChevrOil project.
"With both contracts awarded by Wood Group Mustang, the new project will see MTE provide its world leading solutions as part of a full turnkey project which will include providing design and engineering expertise right through to onsite installation of the seven RIE’s. This is in addition to the company providing a field operations office module and twenty-one RIE modules. " the company reported.
Speaking about the new contract win, Anthony Jones, Managing Director at MTE said: “As one of the largest oil fields in the world, the key to ensuring the TengizChevrOil project is successful is collaboration in order to facilitate engineering excellence at all stages of the project. As part of our long-standing relationship with Wood Group Mustang, we will work closely with the company as an extension of their team to deliver the most optimum and bespoke solutions that meet industry standards.”
The company will deliver RIE’s that will have high security levels and operate in extremely harsh environments, with ambient temperatures ranging from -36°C to +50°C. The modules will provide the requisite seismic resistance related to the area with a minimum design life of 20 years.
