Group Chief Executive Officer’s Review (continued)<br />

International<br />

Footprint Expanded<br />

We have been steadily making<br />

inroads abroad and FY<strong>2011</strong> saw<br />

us further expand our international<br />

footprint. Our first contract in Iraq –<br />

a RM45 million contract for the<br />

construction of 18 skid modules<br />

for the Garaf oil field – marked our<br />

maiden foray into this market and<br />

the Middle East. We also secured<br />

a contract in Australia to fabricate<br />

components for the Gorgon LNG<br />

plant which will create fabrication<br />

support opportunities for offshore<br />

and onshore facilities. Closer to<br />

home in ASEAN, we secured a<br />

RM100 million contract in Brunei<br />

from Brunei Shell for the fabrication<br />

of two compression modules for<br />

28 <strong>Kencana</strong> <strong>Petroleum</strong><br />

the Ampa 9 – Brunei Water project.<br />

We made further progress in<br />

Vietnam, when we secured a subsea<br />

services contract from Petrovietnam<br />

Gas Services Company valued at<br />

approximately RM75 million to locate<br />

and repair severe metal loss<br />

features of the 16 inch Bach Ho to<br />

Long Hai Pipeline and 18 inch PM3<br />

to Ca Mau Offshore Gas Pipeline.<br />

We are constantly exploring<br />

opportunities in ASEAN and expect<br />

the regional oil and gas sector to<br />

remain bullish. In line with this,<br />

we plan to open representative<br />

offices in neighbouring countries<br />

by the middle of 2012. A domestic<br />

presence in these markets will<br />

afford us a better understanding<br />

of the intricacies of these markets.<br />

We will also explore the possibility<br />

of forming joint ventures or<br />

alliances with local and international<br />

companies in the markets we<br />

venture into. We have steadily built<br />

up our reputation as a reliable and<br />

professional fabricator and we are<br />

now the contractor of first choice<br />

by many clients.<br />

ORDER BOOK STRENGTHENED<br />

We continued to aggressively<br />

pursue new projects over the<br />

course of FY<strong>2011</strong> which resulted<br />

in our order book balance increasing<br />

from RM1.8 billion at the start of<br />

FY<strong>2011</strong> to RM2.2 billion at the end<br />

of FY<strong>2011</strong>. The year saw several<br />

projects making notable<br />

Some sizable<br />

fabrication contracts<br />

included the RM272<br />

million fabrication works<br />

contract for a central<br />

processing platform<br />

with living quarters for<br />

Newfield Malaysia.
