10 Apr 2023
L&T Energy Hydrocarbon (LTEH), the hydrocarbon business of Larsen & Toubro (L&T), has secured multiple offshore packages from a major client in the Gulf region, the company said without revealing the identity of the client.
The scope of work comprises engineering, procurement, construction and installation of various new offshore facilities and their integration with existing installations.
“LTEH Offshore has consistently demonstrated timely project delivery deploying end-to-end capabilities, including design, fabrication, and installation of large process platforms, living quarters, subsea systems, piping and other T&I works. Securing these repeat orders indicate customer satisfaction and is a testimony to customer’s faith in the team's dedicated efforts towards developing and nurturing these capabilities,” Subramanian Sarma, whole-time director and senior executive vice president, said.
L&T Offshore is executing several domestic and international offshore projects and is committed to building its regional presence in geographies that it operates in, by nurturing local skills and talent, and enhancing engagement with local vendors and contractors.
LTEH offers integrated design-to-build solutions across the hydrocarbon sector globally. Backed by over three decades of rich experience and extensive capabilities across the value chain, the Business has been setting global benchmarks in all aspects of project management, corporate governance, quality, health safety environment (HSE) and operational excellence.
L&T said its Power Transmission & Distribution (PT&D) business also secured multiple domestic EPC orders.
As the country’s power generation evolves, large renewable energy (RE) zones are being developed that house several solar and wind projects from various developers in contiguous land parcels. The power generated from such individual projects is collected at pooling substations, located in the vicinity, and then re-distributed to intra-state and inter-state transmission networks. One such RE zone, the Khavda RE park being developed in Gujarat’s Kutch region, will be one of the largest of its kind in the world. The PT&D business has secured orders to establish 765kV and 400kV gas insulated substations, to serve as pooling substations, in the Khavda RE zone.
Another upcoming RE zone is in the Kurnool district of Andhra Pradesh where gigawatts of solar and wind energy generation projects are being developed. The business has won an order to establish 765kV gas insulated and air insulated substation bays at the pooling and remote end substations.
The combined scope of these substation packages includes more than 7 km of gas insulated bus ducts, bus reactors and protection and automation systems.
The PT&D business has also bagged orders to develop distribution infrastructure in two circles of Rajasthan’s prominent discom.
