Subsea giant TechnipFMC has secured an integrated engineering, procurement, construction and installation (iEPCI) contract for Shell’s Dover development in the US Gulf of Mexico.
The deal worth up to $250m will see the New York-listed firm supply the subsea tree systems in addition to the EPCI of the umbilical, riser, and flowline systems.
The Dover development will tie back to the Appomattox platform, where TechnipFMC previously supplied and installed the subsea production systems.
Originally discovered in 2018, Dover is located within Mississippi Canyon, around 273 km offshore southeast of New Orleans. Shell took the final investment decision on the project in March this year. Dover is expected to start production in late 2024 or early 2025 and produce up to 21,000 boepd at peak rates.
