Saturday, December 20 2025

Fossil Energy – Caspian Sea

bp has awarded BOS Shelf a $156 million contract for the jacket and piles for the new Shah Deniz Compression (SDC) platform in the Caspian Sea.

BP states that the $2.9 billion Shah Deniz Compression (SDC) project, the next phase of developing the large Shah Deniz gas field, is designed to access and produce low-pressure gas reserves and maximize resource recovery.

The work scope includes shop and erection engineering, rolling of tubulars, fabrication and assembly of the 9,900-mt jacket and its 5,800-mt pin and skirt piles.

In addition, the Baku-based yard will be responsible for commissioning the installation systems, load-out and sea-fastening of the completed jacket.

Work may already have started, with completion targeted for first-quarter 2028.
