 [08.07.10]
FMC Technologies announced Thursday that it has signed an agreement with Gazprom Dobycha Shelf LLC for the manufacture and supply of subsea production equipment to support the Kirinskoye field. The award has a value of approximately $190 million in revenue to FMC Technologies.
Kirinskoye is a subsea-to-beach gas and condensate field off Russia's Pacific coast. It is located in water depths of approximately 300 feet (90 meters) within the Kirinsky Block of the Sakhalin III project, 17 miles (28 km) offshore Sakhalin Island.
FMC's scope of supply includes the manufacture of subsea production trees, a manifold, wellheads, multiphase meters, choke modules and subsea control modules. The equipment will be manufactured and assembled at FMC's facilities in Dunfermline, Scotland and Kongsberg, Norway and at FMC's Multi Phase Meters AS (MPM) operation in Stavanger, Norway. Deliveries are scheduled to commence in the second quarter of 2011.
"We are proud to have been selected for this project, our first subsea development in Russia," said Tore Halvorsen, FMC's Senior Vice President of Global Subsea Production Systems. "FMC's experience and success in delivering subsea-to-beach solutions will help Gazprom meet its goal of serving Russia's Eastern Gas program and we view this as an opportunity to strengthen our position for future subsea projects in the region."

FMC Technologies is also a strong candidate for the delivery of the subsea production equipment in connection with the development of the Shtokman field in the Barents Sea. The Sakhalin contract is a good reference for a possible participation in the Shtokman project. The investment decision for Shtokman will be made in March 2011.
