  • Design, fabrication and installation of flowline end terminations ,
  • Fabrication and installation of jumpers,
  • Pre-commissioning for the flowline.

Covering all aspects of the field development from engineering to design, manufacturing and installation, this new award highlights Technip’s unique vertical integration in the subsea business environment.

Technip's operating center in Houston, Texas, USA, will manage the overall project. The flowline system will be fabricated at the group’s spoolbase in Mobile, Alabama, USA. The offshore installation is expected to be performed in the second half of 2016 by Technip’s vessel the Deep Blue, the Group’s flagship vessel for deepwater pipelay.

I am pleased that this award comes in conjunction with the successful completion of the Kodiak project and with the recent award of the Odd Job project.
