TechnipFMC, the US oil and gas services company, has been awarded a large contract by Energean Plc to help develop the new Katlan natural gas field offshore Israel in the East Mediterranean.

TechnipFMC, the energy and liquefied natural gas engineering company, posted mixed first-quarter results amid continued progress on the Yamal LNG project in Russia and as front-end engineering and design activity increased in the sector.

Sembcorp Marine of Singapore has secured a contract from energy and LNG engineer TechnipFMC for a floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) unit for offshore Israel’s latest East Mediterranean natural gas and oil development.

Greek company Energean Oil & Gas will become a main East Mediterranean natural gas player from 2020 with the expected start of production from the Karish gas field offshore Lebanon and later from the Tanin field off the Israeli coast.
