Anadarko Petroleum’s Mozambique Golfinho/Atun development is going to keep TechnipFMC very busy. The company has been awarded a number of subsea contracts by Anadarko Mozambique Area 1.
TechnipFMC was awarded a major EPCI contract for the subsea hardware system through its wholly owned UAE incorporated subsidiary, Technip Middle East FZCO.
TechnipFMC will execute the offshore installation scope with its consortium partner Van Oord, through their wholly owned UAE incorporated subsidiary, Van Oord Gulf FZE, and in cooperation with strategic major subcontractor, Allseas.
In addition, it was awarded separate contracts under its wholly owned US incorporated subsidiary FMCTI (FMC Technologies Inc.), to provide subsea hardware in support of well construction and the EPCI scope.
Arnaud Pieton, President Subsea at TechnipFMC, stated “We are extremely pleased to have been selected for the majority of the Mozambique LNG subsea scope. TechnipFMC will execute its scope utilizing our integrated model (iEPCI TM ) and will highlight our industry leading subsea capabilities to help maximize Anadarko’s overall project value. This award is a testament of our 25-year partnership with Anadarko and will further expand our presence in Mozambique.”
Further to these awards, TechnipFMC and Allseas have entered into a Strategic Collaboration Agreement aimed at jointly pursuing specific deepwater projects where the assets, products and capabilities of both companies are complementary. This Strategic Collaboration will give both companies an enhanced access to world-class opportunities. It will allow our clients to benefit from the unique joint capabilities and integrated delivery assurance of TechnipFMC and Allseas on their most ambitious projects, such as Golfinho.
In support of these awards, TechnipFMC is increasing its footprint in Mozambique and opened a new office in Maputo, Mozambique, in February 2019. Through extensive cooperation agreements with local universities such as UEM and Uni Lurio, TechnipFMC will offer unique training opportunities to young Mozambican engineers that will continue building on our local expertise.
