The conversion, worth about $30 million, was awarded to Keppel Shipyard by Modec of Japan, a sub- sidiary of Mitsui. A significant operation in the con- version of Whakaaropai was the instal- lation of a 1,400-ton turret mooring system, complete with supporting ancil- lary at the bow of the vessel. The turret mooring system was jointly fabricated by Keppel and sister company, Far East Levingston Shipbuilding (FELS). A tan- dem mooring facility and an offloading station was also installed at the stern of the vessel. Other major jobs were the installation of crude process systems onboard the vessel, including a gas compression system and flare system with a 30-m tower. The main boilers were converted for duel fuel firing. Major modification to the piping system was carried out in order to facilitate the storage of processed oil in the cargo tanks. It was also outfitted with a 100- ton helideck, a 20-ton capacity deck crane and laboratory house. Keppel also carried out refurbishment of accommodation and deckhouse facili- ties onboard the vessel.
