Lundin Oil: Hanoi gives pipe go-ahead Upstream, September 3 Vietnam's government has approved a feasibility study by state oil company PetroVietnam to build a $200 million pipeline to transport offshore gas from the Malaysia-Vietnam Commercial Arrangement Area to industrial users in the south-west of the country. The 332-kilometre pipeline would take gas from Lundin Oil's PM-3 block, which lies some 600 kilometres south-west of Ho Chi Minh City in the Malay basin. Upstream reported in mid-July that PetroVietnam would be the main investor in the planned pipeline but would also be seeking foreign investments. The pipeline would transport gas to a urea and power complex in Ca Mau province in the far south of Vietnam. Meanwhile, the Vietnam Economic Times newspaper reported that a consortium led by a PetroVietnam company had won two contracts valued at $116 million to build crude tapping facilities in block PM-3. Company officials were not available for comment because of a public holiday in Vietnam, Reuters reported. The newspaper said a consortium headed by PetroVietnam's Petroleum Technical Service would build a central technology processing unit worth more than $100 million and five rigs worth $16 million for Lundin Oil. The Swedish independent is currently implementing phase two of the Bunga Kekwa development, which will deliver maiden gas supplies to Malaysia in 2005. ________________________________________________________________ Lundin Oil: PTSC Wins International Bids Vietnam Economic Times, September 3 The PetroVietnam Technical Service Company (PTSC)-led consortium has just won two international bids worth a total of $116 million.
