Saipem has won two contracts from Eni worth a combined $910 million (€800 million) for work on the Baleine Phase 3 offshore development in Ivory Coast and the expansion of biofuel production capacity at Enilive's Venice biorefinery in Italy.
The awards cover offshore engineering and installation work for the third phase of Baleine, the largest hydrocarbon discovery offshore Ivory Coast, as well as engineering, procurement and construction of a new deoxygenation unit that will increase production of hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) biofuel at the Porto Marghera refinery.
For the Baleine Phase 3 project, awarded by Eni Côte d'Ivoire and its partners, Saipem will engineer, fabricate, transport and install about 50 km of rigid pipelines and associated subsea infrastructure in water depths of up to 1,300 metres.
The scope also includes installation of flexible risers, jumpers, subsea production systems, a 3-km flexible gas export flowline and 22 km of subsea umbilicals. The project is expected to take about three years, using the FDS and Shen Da construction vessels.
Eni and its partners approved the final investment decision on Baleine Phase 3 in May. The development is expected to increase total field production to around 150,000 barrels of oil per day and 200
