Van Oord awarded EPCI contract in Mozambique

Van Oord, in consortium with TechnipFMC, has been awarded a contract by Anadarko Moçambique Área 1, a wholly owned subsidiary of Anadarko Petroleum Corporation, for its Area 1 Mozambique Golfinho/Atum development.

The contract will cover the engineering, procurement, construction, and installation (EPCI) of the subsea systems. Van Oord will execute the shallow offshore installation scope while its consortium partner TechnipFMC is responsible for the deep water scope.

The Anadarko-led Area 1 Mozambique LNG project will be Mozambique's first onshore LNG development, initially consisting of two LNG trains with total nameplate capacity of 12.88 million tonnes per annum to support the development of the Golfinho/Atum fields located entirely within Offshore Area 1.

Execution will start in 2021.
