The deal, worth between US$104-$117 million, is with the JV comprised of Sumitomo Corp., Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha, JGC Corp. and the Development Bank of Japan.
The agreement will see Yinson and the JV collaborate on the contract for the chartering, operation and maintenance of a floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) facility by Eni Ghana E&P at the Offshore Cape Three Point Block project in Ghana.
