The awards include delivery of two advanced Aker Drilling H6e semi-sub- mersible rigs to be built at Aker Kvaerner Stord and five deepwater semi-submersible rigs to be built at Jurong's shipyard in Singapore. The delivery dates are sched- uled to occur between 2007 and 2009. Sub-Sea Tech Will Be Accepted by O&G Sectors Alpha Perisai Sdn Bhd believes that the introduction of AlphaPRIME sub-sea technology in the largely untapped mar- ginal oil fields will be well received by oil and gas industry players. The company, a unit of Perisai Petroleum Teknologi Bhd, was formed through a joint venture with British-based Alpha Thames Subsea Ltd. in June last year.

It is configured for three- phase separation of oil, gas and water, which also incorporates multiphase pumps, with each installation consisting of at least two identical operating system modules.
