Nigerdock Completes Egina Flare Tower

Tuesday, May 31, 2016

Nigerdock successfully completed fabrication and the sail away of the flare tower for Total’s Egina project offshore Nigeria. The flare tower will be installed On Egina’s FPSO. Total is the operator of the Egina field.

The FPSO is being developed for deployment on the Egina oil field, located 150 km off the coast of Nigeria.

The completion of the flare tower makes Nigerdock the first Nigerian yard to carry out the fabrication and loaded out structures for the project.

The Egina field is currently under development and production is scheduled to begin in 2018. Nigerdock was selected by Samsung/Total for critical in-country fabrication works and training services as the provider of choice.

The Flare Tower structure weighs in at 732 tons and was completed on time, loaded out and has since sailed away.
