BP and Kosmos Energy have contracted KBR to perform the pre-FEED and project support services for the Tortue/Ahmeyimfield offshore Mauritania and Senegal. The contract falls under KBR’s global services agreement with BP.
KBR will provide the pre-FEED and project support covering design of the subsea, pre-treatment FPSO facility, inshore hub/terminal, and interfaces for FLNG for the Tortue Project. This new work will build on the earlier concept phase work for the development of the field already completed by KBR’s subsidiary Granherne for BP’s partner, Kosmos.
“KBR is pleased to offer our world-class engineering design expertise to continue to support this significant project from its early stages and to help BP and its partners develop an LNG hub for Mauritania and Senegal,” said Jay Ibrahim, KBR President, Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA). “This award confirms KBR’s strategic commitment to and builds upon our ongoing relationship with BP for engineering services around the globe.”
KBR’s pre-FEED work is expected to be performed over the next six months, with KBR supporting BP in the Optimize Stage of the Tortue field development. The work will be executed from KBR’s London office.
