MODEC Guyana Inc. is seeking qualified subcontractors to support produced water treatment operations on floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels linked to offshore developments in ExxonMobil Guyana’s Stabroek Block.
The Japanese builder has contracts to deliver two FPSOs of the seven already sanctioned.
The company issued the request on April 22. It requires contractors to provide start-up, maintenance, monitoring, and optimization services for produced water systems onboard FPSOs. The scope covers commissioning, troubleshooting, remote monitoring, and performance improvement to ensure compliance with discharge standards.
The subcontractor “shall be fully responsible for the provision of skilled manpower, technical expertise, tools, consumables, and support services required to ensure efficient and reliable operation of the Produced Water Treatment System,” according to the company.

Work will include commissioning and start-up of treatment systems, planned and corrective maintenance, and performance monitoring to meet oil-in-water discharge requirements of 15 parts per million. Contractors must also supply materials, calibration services, and technical support both offshore and onshore.
MODEC said the scope extends to multiple system components, including hydrocyclones, compact flotation units, produced water coolers, pumps, and oil recovery units installed on FPSO facilities.

The company is targeting firms with experience in oil-water separation technologies and the ability to deliver full commissioning documentation and calibration services.
MODEC currently holds engineering, procurement, construction and installation contracts for FPSOs being built for ExxonMobil Guyana’s Uaru and Hammerhead developments. These projects are part of ongoing activity in the Stabroek Block, where oil production is projected to reach about 1.7 million barrels per day by 2030.
