Azule Energy has once again turned to TechnipFMC for the supply of flexible pipe.
This time, according to a TechnipFMC media release, it is a “significant” deal for the Ndungu project, offshore Angola. According to TechnipFMC, the deal is worth anywhere between $75 million and $250 million.
The Ndungu project will tie into Block 15/06 West Hub, the company highlighted in the release, adding that this is where it was recently awarded a “substantial” flexible pipe contract. Through this extension, the company was able to provide an optimized solution that enables Azule to maintain schedule and achieve efficiencies, TechnipFMC stated in the release.
In February, TechnipFMC joined a list of companies that have been hired by Azule Energy to bring forward the Agogo Integrated West Hub Development project, offshore Angola. The company has been contracted to supply flexible pipe for the project. TechnipFMC valued the contract between $250 million and $500 million and said it is one of TechnipFMC’s largest ever awards for flexible pipe in West Africa.
The company stated at the time that the contract covers the engineering, procurement, and supply of jumpers, flowlines, risers, and all associated ancillary equipment. The flexible pipe will connect the new Agogo facility to the subsea production systems.
“This contract is the result of transparency and collaboration between TechnipFMC and Azule to accommodate a fast-track schedule,” Jonathan Landes, President, Subsea at TechnipFMC, commented on the Ndungu project award.
“Trust, responsiveness, and agility are at the core of the relationship we are building with this key player in Angola. We’re delighted to be working with Azule once again,” he added.
