October 01, 2024 [Storage Terminals Magazine]- McDermott, in consortium with Saipem and China Petroleum Engineering and Construction Corporation, has secured a front-end engineering design contract for the Rovuma LNG Phase 1 Project in Mozambique. This major development, a joint venture between ExxonMobil Development Africa B.V., Eni S.p.A., and CNODC Dutch Cooperatief U.A., marks a key milestone for Mozambique’s energy sector and presents a substantial opportunity for the country’s economic growth.

 

The Rovuma LNG Phase 1 project involves the liquefaction and export of natural gas extracted from the Offshore Area 4 fields located off the Afungi Peninsula in Mozambique. This initiative is expected to significantly contribute to the nation’s industrial, social, and economic development.

Rob Shaul, senior vice president of McDermott’s Low Carbon Solutions business, commented, “LNG helps shape an entirely new era of energy solutions, and McDermott plays a significant role in this global shift with more than 60 years of LNG experience. McDermott is well established in Mozambique and can apply this knowledge and experience to continue the country’s industrial, social, and economic development.”

The scope of the FEED contract includes the modular design of a greenfield LNG production facility in Afungi, which will include gas pre-treatment units, utilities, and offsite systems needed to support the production of liquefied natural gas. The facility is expected to have a production capacity of 18 million tonnes per annum (MTPA). Additionally, the contract covers the preparation of an engineering, procurement, and construction proposal.

McDermott’s office in London will oversee the execution of the project.
