Technip is waiting on tenterhooks for Petrobras to pull the trigger on a 14 million cubic metres per day floating liquefaction project in Brazil’s pre-salt province.
The French contractor and partner JGC of Japan were declared winners of a tender to supply the floater in December but it remains unclear when building work will actually get the nod.
Petrobras is still evaluating the relative advantages of a 290-kilometre pipeline against FLNG to handle pre-salt gas expected to come on-stream by mid-decade.
