According to Lamprell, the contract pertains to the conversion of the ‘MOS Frontier’, a three-legged Type MLT116C jackup rig.
In order to accommodate 290 personnel, the multi-purpose jackup unit, which can operate in water depths of 300ft, will be converted into an accommodation support vessel.
The project work will be carried out at the group’s facility in Sharjah.
Lamprell chief executive officer James Moffat said the company undertakes major rig refurbishment projects.
"Rig refurbishment remains an area of traditional strength for the group and it is encouraging to have been selected by MOS for this high profile project," Moffat added.
Lamprell provides services to the onshore and offshore oil & gas and renewable energy industries.
