Aker Solutions was awarded a contract that will have it working on the Coral South project offshore Mozambique being developed by ENI. The contract is for the company to deliver three unbilicals and associated equipment for the development.
The work scope includes three steel tube umbilicals that will total more than 19 km in length and connect the Coral South FLNG facility to the field’s subsea production system. The umbilicals will be manufactured at Aker Solutions’ plant in Moss, Norway, and are scheduled for delivery at the end of 2019.
“This contract is an important milestone for Aker Solutions as we continue to demonstrate our capability as a partner of choice for products and services across Africa,” said Aker Solutions CEO Luis Araujo. “It is a privilege to be involved in the first offshore development in Mozambique and to play a part in developing the country’s energy industry.”
Discovered in 2012, the Coral South development is the first energy project being developed offshore Mozambique.
