CB&I’s Asset Solutions business (formerly part of Petrofac) has been awarded a large* three-year contract in Côte d’Ivoire, for the provision of operations and maintenance services.

Under the terms of the contract**, CB&I will be responsible for the safe operation, maintenance, integrity management and regulatory compliance of a Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessel offshore Côte d’Ivoire.

Following a structured transition from the incumbent service provider, CB&I will ensure the safe restart and stabilisation of operations; life-of-field asset integrity and reliability; and class certification.

This award is testament to CB&I’s technical expertise and track record with FPSO assets, both in Africa and internationally. Through its established presence in Côte d’Ivoire, CB&I has developed a robust in-country supply chain, as well as investing in Ivorian capability development and local content growth.

Sandy Merson, Senior Vice President – Asset Operations for CB&I Asset Solutions , commented: “Over the last few years we have been accelerating our presence across Africa, building on a 20-year presence in the region and our commitment to bolster the local supply chain and build local workforces.

“We look forward to continuing this effort through the provision of safe and efficient production and operations which extend asset life.”
