Yahoo Finance TechnipFMC (FTI) Wins Gas to Energy Project Contract in Guyana
TechnipFMC FTI has been awarded a significant contract by ExxonMobil’s XOM affiliate, Esso Exploration and Production Guyana Limited, for the Gas to Energy Project in the South American country of Guyana.
According to the contract, which is subject to the final project approval, FTI will provide the engineering, procurement, construction and installation of subsea risers and pipelines. The development will link production from Liza Destiny and Unity back to shore, transporting associated gas from the field to a gas-fired power plant that will supply electricity to the community.
Per TechnipFMC’s definition of a significant contract, the deal is worth somewhere between $75 million and $250 million.
President, Subsea at TechnipFMC, Jonathan Landes, mentioned that this project is an example of how FTI assists in delivering the energy the world needs and that the company was thrilled to be supporting another project in Guyana. “We remain proud of our dedicated Guyanese employees and are committed to the continued development and expansion of local capabilities,” he ended.
As of now, the French-American, U.K.-domiciled oilfield services giant employs more than 85 Guyanese nationals, and the company expects to hire and train additional local staff in support of this contract award.
