PARISTechnipFMC and Allseas have agreed to jointly pursue deepwater projects suited to the assets, products, and capabilities of the two companies.

According to TechnipFMC, the strategic collaboration should enhance their access to world-class opportunities, with clients benefiting from the joint capabilities and integrated delivery assurance on their most ambitious projects.

It follows yesterday’s award by Anadarko of the more than $1-billion EPCI contract for the subsea hardware system for the deepwater Golfinho/Atum gas development in Area 1 off Mozambique.

TechnipFMC will execute the offshore installation scope with consortium partner Van Oord, and in co-operation with Allseas. Van Oord will execute the shallow offshore installation scope while TechnipFMC is responsible for the deepwater scope. 

In addition, FMC Technologies Inc. will provide subsea hardware in support of well construction and the EPCI scope.

Arnaud Pieton, president Subsea at TechnipFMC, said the company would apply its integrated model (iEPCI) for the program.

In February, the company opened a new office in Maputo, and plans to offer training to young Mozambican engineers via cooperation agreements with local universities such as UEM and Uni Lurio.

Golfinho/Atum gas will head subsea to a new LNG complex onshore comprising two LNG trains with total nameplate capacity of 12.88 MMt/yr.
