Larsen & Toubro Ltd (L&T) has announced that a consortium formed by the company and Korea's Samsung Heavy Industries Co. Ltd. (SHI), bagged an order worth Rs.2,117crore from the Oil & Natural Gas Corporation Ltd. (ONGC) for the Vasai East Development Project.

The scope of works includes engineering, procurement, onshore fabrication and transportation of the critical booster and high pressure compression modules. SHI will execute the balance process platform facility for the project.

Fully assembled and pre-tested compressor modules for the project will be delivered from the company's unique modular fabrication facility at Hazira, near Surat. The company is also developing over 100 acres of additional facility for a rapid expansion of its complex at Hazira.

The Vasai East Development Project will be located approximately 80 km west north-west of Mumbai, of India's west coast. It will incorporate new booster compressors and a process facilities platform at BCPA-2. The project will have oil handling capacity of 4,200 bpd, gas processing facility of 12 cubic metres per day and water injection of 47,000 bpd.

The project is likely to be executed in a period of two years. Once commissioned, the project will assist gas production at lower pressure from the existing South Vasai field.
