HOUSTON – 26 November 2025McDermott announces the safe and successful completion of offshore transportation and installation of subsea infrastructure for the FaS pipelay and heavy lift project, which covers the F22, F27 and Selasih fields off the coast of Sarawak in East Malaysia.

Awarded in 2023 by Sarawak Shell Berhad, the project scope includes the transportation and installation of two pipeline segments, one section of flexible pipelay, pre-commissioning services for all infield pipelines, and the structural installation of three jackets and topsides.

“This project demonstrates the strength of our long-standing relationship with Shell and our ability to deliver complex projects safely and efficiently,” said Mahesh Swaminathan, McDermott’s Senior Vice President, Subsea and Floating Facilities. “It also highlights the depth of talent in our Kuala Lumpur office, which continues to play a leading role in delivering complex offshore projects for Malaysia and beyond.”

For the FaS scope, McDermott deployed its DLV2000 heavy lift and pipelay vessel, underscoring its strategic relevance for offshore work in Asia. The project recorded more than one million safe work hours, a milestone that reflects McDermott’s safety-first culture and strong collaboration with Shell and its project partners.
