From project concept
to development
ENGINEERING
Our engineering services
provide clients with support
from the outset of a project.
Our specialist engineering
consultancy teams can provide
concept and feasibility studies
and our service delivery
extends all the way through
to project execution and
commissioning.
Petrofac’s track record,
spanning more than 200 EPC/
EPCm/EPCI projects globally,
enables us to leverage our
delivery know-how to create
engineering solutions which
deliver constructible and
inherently safe designs.
We have expertise in the
design and engineering
of offshore structures
(fixed and floating) as well
as specialist capability for
subsea cables, including
large HVDC interconnectors
as well as smaller wind farm
export cables.
Scale and complexity of
projects do not constrain
us since we have the depth
and breadth of resources
to scale our delivery to suit
projects of any size.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Petrofac’s established project

management procedures and
every year project execution philosophies.
Our estimating, planning and
project control teams enable us to
deliver controlled and consistent
project outcomes. Integrated
systems provide live status and
can be aligned to our clients’
systems where needed. And our
HSSE function and Group-wide
approach to safety ensure we
remain safe in all we do.
PROCUREMENT
We have a network of over
400 procurement specialists
and a collective spend
of around US$2-3 billion
annually. This means we have
the knowledge required to
recommend and implement
the right solution for each
project at the most competitive
rate. Our procedures and
controls ensure expenditure is
optimised through negotiation
skills, vendor relationships,
market knowledge, service
contracts and our sourcing
experience.

This EPC-led approach
results in construction-driven

schedules. When combined
with our extensive contractor
management capability it means
we can accelerate project

to our experience in delivering
in highly-regulated regions, we
can help our clients negotiate
the regulatory environment too.

BORWIN3 GAMMA PLATFORM
Client: TenneT
Scope: EPCI
Date: 2012 – ongoing
Location: German North Sea
BorWin3 is a HVDC link under construction
to transmit offshore wind power to the
power grid of the German mainland.
Currently under installation 130 km off
the German coast, in water depths of 40
metres, it is scheduled to go online in 2019.
When operational, it will house a
900 megawatt (MW) Siemens HVDC
station. When completed it will be one
of the world’s heaviest and largest
HVDC platforms, with the topside
standing at six storeys and weighing
around 18,000 metric tonnes (MT).
Petrofac, in consortium with Siemens,
has full responsibility for the engineering,
procurement, construction, and offshore
installation of the platform.
The jacket was successfully installed in
May 2018.
GALLOPER OFFSHORE WIND FARM
Client: Galloper Wind Farm Ltd
(an SSE Renewables/RWE Innogy JV)
Scope: EPCI
Date: 2016 – 2018
Location: UK
Petrofac and GE were awarded a contract
to engineer, procure, construct and install
a HVAC offshore substation platform (OSP)
to facilitate wind farm grid connection in
the UKCS area. Galloper consists of 56
offshore turbines.
The substation provides a transmission
capacity of approximately 340 MW. Petrofac
has designed, procured, constructed, and
installed Galloper’s jacket and topside,
which are located at a water depth of
30 metres and weigh 1,743 metric tonnes
(MT) and 2,200 tonnes respectively. Two
of the major components – the jacket and
deck for the OSP – were completed at the
Heerema fabrication yard in Hartlepool.
Installation was successfully completed in
May 2017.
As a normally unmanned installation, the
platform and all equipment housed on
it were designed to prioritise availability,
reliability, low maintenance and ease of
service and repair.
