McDermott and INPEX Celebrate the Sailaway of Booster Compression Module (BCM) for ICHTHYS LNG Project
McDermott International, Ltd., in collaboration with INPEX Corporation, proudly marks a significant milestone with the successful sailaway of the Booster Compression Module (BCM) for the ICHTHYS LNG project. This achievement follows months of meticulous engineering, fabrication, and testing at McDermott’s state-of-the-art fabrication yard in Batam, Indonesia.
The BCM, a critical component of the offshore gas compression system, will enhance production efficiency and optimize gas flow for the ICHTHYS LNG development. This module was designed and built to withstand the demanding offshore environment, ensuring long-term operational reliability.
The project represents a testament to McDermott’s expertise in delivering large-scale offshore modules and INPEX’s commitment to advancing energy infrastructure. The successful sailaway underscores the seamless collaboration, engineering excellence, and dedication of the workforce involved in this ambitious endeavor.
As the BCM makes its way to its offshore destination, this milestone brings the ICHTHYS LNG project one step closer to reinforcing its role as a major player in the global LNG market.
