TechnipFMC will design, manufacture and install subsea hardware, including subsea tree systems, subsea distribution controls, topside controls, flying leads and connectors for three wells, in addition to the supply of 20 miles of production umbilical and flowlines.

We look forward to executing the scope of work and to further expanding our 25-year successful relationship with Shell and our deepwater portfolio in the Gulf of Mexico,” Arnaud Pieton, president of subsea at TechnipFMC, said.
