Aker Solutions signs onto Eni project

OSLO, June 26, 2017 – Aker Solutions will provide umbilicals and other equipment for the Coral South project off Mozambique, the Norwegian services provider said on Monday.

Under its contract with operator Eni, Aker Solutions will provide three steel tube umbilicals, each measuring more than 19 kilometres in length. The sections will connect the project’s FLNG unit to the subsea production system.

“It is a privilege to be involved in the first offshore development in Mozambique and to play a part in developing the country’s energy industry,” CEO Araujo said of the award. The umbilicals are expected to be delivered around year-end 2019.

On June 1, 2017, Eni kicked off the project’s implementation phase with a signing ceremony for the drilling, construction and installation contracts for works associated with the venture.
