Repsol is inviting contractors to qualify for the tender process to provide FEED engineering services for Sakakemang, with the contract having an 18-month duration. The contract requires a minimum local content (TKDN) of 40%.

The operator noted that the FEED engineering services would support it in continuing the ongoing project engineering work to the detailed engineering stage.
