Australia's Woodside has awarded Norway-based Aibel a front-end engineering and design (FEED) contract in connection with the subsea tie back to the Ngujima-Yin floating production, storage and offloading vessel.

The Greater Enfield Development comprises the subsea tie back of the Ngujima-Yin FPSO. The FPSO will undergo modifications to the topsides, hull and turret. Aibel's scope of work includes management, engineering and provision of procurement services for FEED. 

The contract also holds an option for the project's execution phase. 

"This is an important assignment for Aibel, allowing us to further grow our experience within FPSO deliveries. Aibel Singapore has through several individual projects proven to deliver great results. I am confident they will do the same this time," says EVP Field Development, Nils Arne Hatleskog.
