Eni awards Technip umbilical contract for Angola project
PARIS -- Technip’s wholly owned subsidiaries Technip Umbilicals Ltd. and Angoflex Ltda. have been awarded a contract by Eni to supply umbilicals to the Block 15/06 East Hub Development offshore Angola.
This field is located about 350 km north of Luanda, at water depths of 450-600 m. The contract covers project management and the manufacturing of about 15 km of dynamic and static steel tube umbilicals.
Technip Umbilicals' facility in Lobito, Angola, with support from Technip Umbilicals in Newcastle, UK, will manufacture the umbilicals that are scheduled to be completed in the second half of 2016.
Reinforcing Technip’s relationship with Eni, this new contract follows another project awarded to Technip last year for the fabrication and installation of flexible and rigid pipelines at Block 15/06.
