In January this year, TechnipFMC reaffirmed the timeline for its planned split into two separate diversified pure-play entities.

Previously, in October last year, the company secured a significant subsea contract for the Nam Con Son 2 Phase 2 pipeline development across Nam Con Son basin and Cuu Long basin in Vietnam.

In December 2018, BP and Sonangol signed an agreement to advance the development of the Platina field, through making a final investment decision (FID).
