OSLO, NorwayShanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding has contracted TMC Compressors of the Seas (TMC) to supply the marine compressed air system for the FPSO Liza Unity, destined for the Liza Phase 2 project offshore Guyana.

TMC’s system will comprise frequency-controlled instrument air compressors, air compressors, and associated air dryers and filters.

The company supplied similar equipment for the FPSO Liza Destiny, for Liza Phase 1.

The Liza Unity will produce up to 220,000 b/d of oil, with associated gas treatment capacity of 400 MMcf/d, and water injection capacity of 250,000 b/d.

The vessel will be spread moored in a water depth of around 1,600 m (5,249 ft), 200 km (124 mi) offshore.

“This far from shore, it is key to utilize the most reliable equipment to be able to deliver on the operator’s operational requirements,” said Hans Petter Tanum, director of sales and business development at TMC.
