KBR awarded pre-FEED study for Indonesian LNG regas project

KBR, Inc. announced today the award of a pre-front end engineering and design (FEED) study for PT Australasia LNG Indonesia's (AALNG) new proposed LNG Hub terminal in Probolinggo, East Java, Indonesia. This is KBR's first contract with AALNG.

Under the terms of the contract, KBR will provide a pre-FEED study for the onshore LNG regasification and truck loading distribution facilities of AALNG's proposed LNG Hub Terminal. The pre-FEED study will be further developed for subsequent implementation phases to meet a throughput capacity of 3 million MTPA. The terminal could potentially be expanded by adding more LNG Regas trains and LNG storage to meet future demands in the East Java region. This work is expected to be performed over ten weeks, with KBR performing the pre-FEED study through an integrated team led by LNG expertise from KBR's London office with support from KBR's Jakarta office and its Granherne subsidiary.

"KBR is pleased to be awarded this important project and we look forward to furthering our working relationship with AALNG and to supporting AALNG in their future projects," said Greg Conlon, KBR President, Asia Pacific. "This project demonstrates KBR's ability to offer integrated solutions through a collaborative execution model to our customers in Asia Pacific by bringing together our global knowledge, experiences and expertise," Conlon continued.

For more than 40 years, KBR has led the concept development, study, design and construction of over forty-five percent of the world's LNG facilities. KBR has participated in nearly 50 LNG terminal projects covering all project phases including feasibility studies, basic design, FEED and engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) execution.

Revenue associated with this project was undisclosed and will be booked into backlog of unfilled orders for KBR's Engineering & Construction Business Segment in Q4 2016.
