Eni issues turnkey tender for third Rovuma FLNG platform | Lusa report
Mozambique Rovuma Venture (MRV), led by Eni, has launched an international call for expressions of interest for the construction and installation of a third floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) production unit.
According to the call for expressions of interest, to which Lusa gained access on Wednesday (24 June), the consortium led by the Italian oil company is seeking to identify companies interested in carrying out an EPCIC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Installation and Commissioning) contract for a new large-scale FLNG unit to be deployed in the deep waters of Area 4 of the Rovuma Basin, off the coast of Cabo Delgado, with a capacity of up to six million metric tonnes per annum (mtpa) of liquefied natural gas (LNG).
The scope of work for this tender, which is open until 3 July, includes the complete delivery of the FLNG unit, from engineering and procurement through to construction, transport, mooring, commissioning, operational start-up and performance testing, for operation in waters approximately 2,000 metres deep.
Bidders must demonstrate experience in FLNG projects or comparable offshore ventures carried out over the last ten years, present technological solutions for liquefaction, and identify the suppliers of the mooring and storage systems to be used on the future platform.
