On August 29th, 2019 there was a solemn event dedicated to celebration of the Day of oil and gas industry.
In honor of the professional holiday Vyacheslav Ivanovich Samisko, Chief of the offshore operations department of “Pacific Engineering Company Ltd.”, was rewarded with the Certificate of honor of the Sakhalin Region Government for the major contribution to development of the oil and gas industry of Sakhalin Region.
“Pacific Engineering Company” Ltd. has performed several large projects – both offshore ones on the shelf of Sakhalin Island and onshore surveys.
1. Offshore complex engineering surveys in the area of subsoil plot of federal significance including the field “Kaigansko-Vasyukanskoe-Sea”. The surveys were executed for construction of the exploratory well from the semi-submersible drilling rig (SSDR), for designing of the production complex and pipeline route from the site to the shore. Client – «Elvari Neftegas» LLC.
The following works were performed from survey vessel “Diabaz”: bathymetric survey by a multibeam echo sounder, hydroacoustic survey by a side-scan sonar, high resolution seismic, ultra-high resolution seismic, high-frequency and low-frequency continuous sub-bottom profiling, magnetometer survey and sampling; hydrometeorological and ecological investigations were performed. The following works were performed from survey vessel “Trias”: geotechnical drilling, СРТ, vertical seismic profiling (VSP) in the boreholes, field laboratory complex of the soil testing onboard the vessel. The works under the project “Kaigansko-Vasyukanskoe-Sea” will be continued in 2020 in accordance with the contract.
2. Offshore engineering geological and geotechnical surveys for development of the project documentation for the facility: “Sakhalin-1 Project” Arkutun-Dagi field. Central and Southern areas of Dagi structure. Construction of the underwater production facilities”. Client – “Exxon Neftegas Limited”.
The surveys were performed for positioning of the SEFDR (self-elevating floating drilling rig) for development of the areas of Central and Southern Dagi. Complex offshore engineering surveys were carried out for subsequent construction of the underwater production facilities including the patter wells, templates and flowlines. Survey vessel “Trias” was used under the project, the following works were performed from the vessel: drilling of engineering-geological boreholes, CPT, vertical seismic profiling in the boreholes. Complex of laboratory soil testing was carried out in the process of drilling works. The works have been completed in full.
3. Complex offshore and onshore engineering surveys for development of the project documentation for the facility «Sakhalin – 1 Project». Development Stage 2. Far-Eastern Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Production Complex. Offshore facilities. Onshore facilities». De-Kastri, Khabarovsk Territory. Client – Branch of the corporation “FLUOR DANIEL EURASIA INC.” (FLUOR), Technical Client – SNGT.
Jack-up drilling rig “Krot” and onshore geotechnical party were involved in the engineering-geological surveys. A new small-size tracked drilling unit “Korvet 05” was purchased for realization of the project. Five survey facilities have been completed under the contract, works at one of the facilities will be continued in 2020.
All laboratory tests under the projects have been performed in the stationary geotechnical laboratory. All works have been executed with strict observance of the safety requirements and environment protection.
“Pacific Engineering Company Ltd.” took part in XV All-Russia scientific-practical conference and exhibition “Prospects of the engineering surveys development in the construction of the Russian Federation” held in Moscow from November 26 to November 29, 2019.
The conference was organized by the staff of “Engineering surveys” magazine together with the “Institute of geotechnics and engineering surveys in construction” LLC. (“IGIIS”). Association “Engineering surveys in construction” (“AIIS”) and “Association of Surveyors”.
It is the first-rate annual event in the industry, 562 specialists from 183 organizations of three countries and 50 cities participated in the conference.
Alexander Voznyuk, Engineering Survey Director visited the Conference.
Realization of two large-scale investment projects related to development of the transit transportation corridors using the Northern Sea Route started in Sakhalin Region.
Completion of the projects is scheduled for 2027.
In 2022 “Pacific Engineering Company” Ltd. performed the following engineering surveys at following facilities as a part of the investment projects implementation:
The following surveys were performed for reconstruction of the existing infrastructure facilities of Korsakov port and construction of new ones: berths №1, №2, №3 and №4, the seawall, operational water zone and approach channel of the Southern cargo district; operational water zone and approach channel of the “Fishing port”; systems of the navigation safety assurance; coal railway overpass; the road and access roads, the road bridge, coast protection, etc.
The field works included the following surveys: bathymetric survey, engineering-geological surveys (drilling of engineering-geological boreholes from jack-up “Krot”, sampling from SV “Diabaz”, drilling of engineering-geological boreholes from the ramp of URB-2D-3 on KAMAZ); engineering-geophysical surveys from “Yamaha” launch (MBES, SSS, SBP and magnetometer survey); engineering hydro meteorological investigations and micro seismic zoning. Laboratory testing of the soil samples were carried out and technical reports were prepared.
Onshore surveys and shallow-water offshore drilling works were conducted at the mentioned facility. Drilling of engineering-geological boreholes on the shore was performed using drilling unit URB-2A on the basis of TT-4 caterpillar tractor and small-size drilling rig “Korvet – 05”; MINI jack-up drilling rig was used for drilling of the engineering-geological boreholes in the shallow-water areas. Survey vessel “Diabaz” was involved in the works within the seaward part of the water area. The engineering-geological cross-section was studied to the depth of 40 m.
