FMC to build BP offshore gear

FMC Technologies has landed an $80 million job with BP for subsea equipment.

They are destined for the UK supermajor's deep-water projects off Angola. FMC's contract includes six subsea trees, control systems, wellheads, tubing hangers, well jumpers and flow bases. The equipment will be made and delivered this year from at FMC's Kongsberg, Norway and Dunfermline, Scotland facilities. Last week FMC announced it had won a $140 million job with BP at Block 18, off Angola. FMC and BP could not be immediately reached by Upstream for comment.
