    The job covers the permanently moored FPSO using a spread mooring system. The vessel will be capable of storing a minimum of 1 million barrels and housing 130 persons on board.

    The water injection facilities will be designed to inject up to 130,000 barrels of water per day.

    Services for the project will be based out of KBR’s offices in Houston, Gothenburg and Luanda. KBR’s Luanda office will play a major role in supplying local employee content for the project.

    “This project builds upon KBR’s long-standing commitment to the African region and further solidifies our position as a leading FPSO provider,” said Dennis Calton, KBR’s President for Oil & Gas.

    “KBR has been present in Africa for nearly 60 years and has executed numerous projects in Angola. I am confident that KBR’s successful completion of this project will position us for additional services during the EPC phase,” he added.
