Husky Energy from Canada and CNOOC from China own each of the Madura fields, BD, MDA & MBH, in the Madura Straight on East Java, Indonesia. The remaining 20% belongs to the local Samudra Energy.
The Madura BD project is well in progress as decision was made last year to go for a
- FPSO to process 110,00 mcf/d gas, 8,000 b/d condensates, 2,500 b/d water
- Wellhead platform
The EPC contract to build this FPSO should be awarded in September to one of the following bidders:
- M3nergy in JV with the local Aquaria Shipping
- Paleyaran Trans Parau Sorat in JV with Pelangi Niaga Mitra, BW Offshore and CETS Investment Management
- Tanker Pacific Offshore Terminals with the local Samudera Petrindo
- Sillo Maritime Perdana of Indonesia with Emas Offshore, Samsung C&T and Federal Offshore service.
- Meindo Elang Indah with Swiber Offshore
- Bakri Construction with Timas Suplindo
- Pal Indonesia with Supasi Wydia Engineering and COOEC

- Semec, the local branch of Punj Lloyd
CNOOC’s Offshore Oil Engineering Corporation who was in charge of the conceptual design came out with the construction of two wellhead platforms, one for each fiel, MDA and MBH, feeding a Floating Production Unit (FPU).
Since September 2011, CNOOC’s Offshore Oil Engineering Corporation is working on the FEED phase of this FPU to have a capacity of 175,000 mcf/d gas where:
- 55,000 mcf/d from MBH
As the gas is supposed to contain low percentage of CO² and sulphur, the FPU will be mainly equipped with a dehydration unit and compression package to process and push the gas to East Java shore through existing network of pipelines.
According to the actual progress on the FEED and the green light expected from the Indonesian Authorities, Husky and CNOOC are planning to send the Invitations To Bid (ITB) in September for a fast track construction.
