Oilfield services firm TechnipFMC has reaffirmed the timeline for its planned split into two separate diversified pure-play entities.

The company said that the transaction is progressing towards completion in the first half of this year.

TechnipFMC said: “The company anticipates completing the transaction in the second quarter of 2020 and intends to host a Capital Markets event in Paris for Technip Energies before completion of the spin-off.”

TechnipFMC was formed in 2017 via a merger between France’s Technip and US FMC Technologies. It announced separation plans in August.

It will split into TechnipFMC (RemainCo) and Technip Energies (SpinCo). One firm will focus on upstream activities, the other on midstream and downstream.

TechnipFMC also said: “Technip Energies will be well-positioned to capture LNG opportunities as a result of its disciplined project delivery model, diversified capabilities and track record.
