Equinor Energy do Brazil Ltda. has signed a letter of intent to TechnipFMC PLC for a front end engineering and design (FEED) study on its BM-C-33 project offshore Brazil (OGJ Online, Mar. 19, 2021).
The study will finalize the technical solution for the proposed gas and condensate greenfield development in pre-salt Campos basin before Equinor makes its final investment decision (FID).
The FEED study includes an option to proceed with a direct award to TechnipFMC for the integrated engineering, procurement, construction, and installation phase.
The contract would cover the entire subsea system, including subsea tree systems, manifolds, jumpers, rigid risers, and flowlines, umbilicals, pipeline end terminations, subsea distribution, and topside control equipment. TechnipFMC would also be responsible for life-of-field services.
