Floating production contractors are queuing up for a tilt at two separate vessels required on Kangean Energy Indonesia's (KEI) delayed development of the Kangean oil and gas block off East Java, Indonesia.
KEI has been in the market for more than a year for a small floating production, storage and offloading vessel for oil and in recent weeks has indicated it also wants an FPSO for gas. KEI comprises Indonesia's Energi Mega Persada (EMP) with 50% interest and Japanese companies Mitsubishi and Japex, which farmed into the block last year.
