The floating plant will be supplied in natural gas by the Sanaga <strong>and</strong> Ebomé<br />

gas fields, <strong>offshore</strong> Kribi. The gas will be extracted from six wells located<br />

on the Sanaga field, then it will be processed in Bipaga’s facilities, before<br />

being conveyed to the floating unit for effective liquefaction.<br />

The floating unit will help SNH <strong>and</strong> Perenco, partners of the association<br />

Sanaga-Sud, produce 1.2 million tons of LNG per year for export, 30,000<br />

tons of domestic gas for Cameroonian households <strong>and</strong> 5,000 barrels of<br />

condensate every day.<br />

For Singapore’s M&OE industry to compete effectively on the global stage however, it<br />

is necessary to develop differentiating advantages.<br />

Mr Iswaran urged the industry to embrace digitalisation <strong>and</strong> tap the promise data analytics,<br />

<strong>and</strong> artificial intelligence may deliver in terms of improving operational efficiency<br />

<strong>and</strong> even generating new revenue streams.<br />

One development relating to this global digital push is a trend towards additive manufacturing.<br />

Industry players have already teamed up to research the use of additive<br />

manufacturing technology or 3D printing - KOM is collaborating with key strategic partners<br />

such as Nanyang Technological University’s Singapore Centre for 3D Printing <strong>and</strong><br />

Lloyd’s Register. SembMarine has roped in the National Additive Manufacturing Innovation<br />

Cluster, A*Star’s Singapore Institute of Manufacturing Technology <strong>and</strong> DNV GL.<br />

To facilitate the incubation <strong>and</strong> development of intelligent <strong>and</strong> autonomous M&OE capabilities,<br />

the government has invested S$107 million to set up the Technology Centre<br />

for Offshore <strong>and</strong> Marine Singapore (TCOMS). TCOMS will integrate pubic research<br />

<strong>and</strong> industry expertise for the purpose of developing innovative concepts <strong>and</strong> infrastructure<br />

for M&OE operations.<br />
