Technip Awarded Pipeline Contract by BG Trinidad and Tobago

Technip has been awarded a contract by BG Trinidad and Tobago for the flowlines, risers, and umbilicals for the North Coast Marine Area Development, offshore Trinidad.

The contract includes engineering, procurement, fabrication, installation, and pre-commissioning of the insulated riser, flowline and umbilical systems that will connect the Eastern Hibiscus and the Chaconia subsea wells to the Hibiscus Platform. The location is twenty-five miles northwest of Trinidad in 500 feet of water.

The detailed design engineering will be performed by Technip's operations and engineering center in Houston. The high-pressure flexible risers will be manufactured by Flexi France, one of the Group's flexible pipe plants, located in Le Trait (France) while the hydraulic control umbilicals will be manufactured by Technip's UK subsidiary, Duco, based in Newcastle. Fabrication of the rigid flowline will take place at Technip's spoolbase in Evanton (UK).
