Blue Water and Yinson Production strengthen partnership with third collaboration
The project involved the complex transportation of 15 FPSO topside modules
Blue Water completed the third collaboration with Yinson Production, showcasing confidence in Blue Water's technical expertise and local knowledge, with the local team in Singapore heavily involved. The project involved the transportation of 15 topside modules for the AGOGO FPSO project.
Having previously managed complex shipments of key FPSO equipment such as pumps, compressors, genera-tors and breakbulk cargo, Yinson Production entrusted Blue Water with the challenging task of transporting 15 topside modules.
The largest module, an impressive 37m high and weighing 3300 metric tonnes, was placed directly on the vessels' pre-positioned grillages. These modules were transported across key routes, including Batam, Vietnam and China, where our team ensured seamless operations while offering competitive pricing.
Strong project management
This complex transport project is not without its challenges. Blue Water overcame technical challenges with our in-house technical engineering team and navigated operational constraints with the support of in-house port captains and specialised external operators to assist with port operations.
Through strong project management and bringing together diverse teams with different objectives, Blue Water ensured alignment towards a common goal: the safe, efficient and on-time delivery of the modules. We facilitated smooth coordination between stakeholders: Yinson Production, Azule Energy (ENI), EPC yard, vessel operators and suppliers.
Our role extended beyond logistics, helping to align shipyard schedules, customer expectations and stringent HSSEQ, quality and marine warranty standards. Our proactive involvement simplified communication, minimised coordination burdens and streamlined operations between all key stakeholders.
Teamwork and expertise
“We are honoured to collaborate with Yinson Production on this milestone project. Its seamless and safe execu-tion was made possible by our team’s exceptional teamwork, expertise and decades of experience, as well as support from all stakeholders,” said Jason Goh, Senior Vice President, Asia.
This successful delivery reinforces Blue Water's commitment to excellence in managing complex FPSO logistics and dedication to delivering results through innovation, collaboration and technical expertise.
