Fornebu/Norway — The scope of work covers the supply of engineering, procurement, and construction services for brownfield projects on the floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels located at each field. This includes support for upgrades to process, chemical and marine support systems, as well as refurbishment of ageing piping and equipment.
The company has already provided subsea support to key projects such as Dalia and Kaombo. This project now also includes topside maintenance, modifications and operations services in West Africa. The new contract will benefit from an extensive local training program that the engineering services provider has been driving, developing strong in-country engineering competence for both subsea lifecycle services and topside maintenance, modifications and operations, the company said. This ongoing commitment would help secure vital skills for the future of the energy industry in Angola.
