第一份合同由 Eni Congo 授予 Saipem，将 Scarabeo 5 半潜式钻井装置改造为分离和增压装置（浮式生产装置 - FPU）。

FPU 是一个半潜式生产平台，接收来自井口立管平台的生产液，将气体与液体分离，并对气体进行增压，以便为附近的浮式液化天然气 (FLNG) 装置供料。

该合同是继今年年初签署的执行初步工程和采购活动协议之后签订的，涉及 FPU 的设计、采购、施工、运输和调试，该设施将安装在位于刚果共和国西北部的近海Djeno 码头的水深约 35 m。海上工程的调试和 FPU 的启动计划于 2023 年第四季度进行。

授予 Saipem 的这份合同是埃尼刚果液化天然气项目的一部分，该项目是该国第一个天然气液化项目，预计液化天然气 (LNG) 总产能将达到每年 300 万吨（约 45 亿立方米/年） ）从 2025 年开始。

此外，Saipem还获得了BP在墨西哥湾的海上活动合同。该合同涉及Argos浮式生产装置（FPU），这是一种专为深水环境中石油和天然气生产而设计的尖端设施。Argos FPU 位于 Green Canyon 780 区块，水深约 1400 m。旗舰船 Saipem Constellation 将执行该项目所需的海洋活动，该项目将由 Saipem 位于美国休斯顿的执行中心管理，该中心是该公司在该地区活动的战略中心。

该合同是一个重要的里程碑，因为它将是第一个涉及在墨西哥湾部署 Saipem Constellation 的项目，此前澳大利亚和圭亚那的项目已获得一系列奖项。此外，该奖项还证明了 Saipem 在为能源行业提供尖端海上解决方案方面的专业知识。

The first contract has been awarded to Saipem by Eni Congo for the conversion of Scarabeo 5 semisubmersible drilling unit into a separation and boosting plant (Floating Production Unit - FPU).

The FPU is a semisubmersible production platform that receives the production fluids from wellheads riser platforms, separate the gas from liquids and boosts the gas in order to feed the nearby floating LNG (FLNG) unit.

The contract, subsequent to an agreement signed early this year for the execution of preliminary engineering and procurement activities, entails the engineering, procurement, construction, transportation and commissioning of the FPU, to be installed offshore the coast of the Republic of Congo, located northwest of the Djeno Terminal, in a depth of about 35 m. The commissioning offshore works and the start-up of the FPU are scheduled by the 4Q23.

This contract awarded to Saipem is part of Eni’s Congo LNG Project, the country's first natural gas liquefaction project that is expected to reach an overall liquefied natural gas (LNG) production capacity of 3 million t per year (approximately 4.5 billion m3/year) from 2025.

In addition, Saipem has been awarded by BP a contract for offshore activities in the Gulf of Mexico. The contract is related to the Argos floating production unit (FPU), a cutting-edge facility designed for oil and gas production in deep-water environments. The Argos FPU is located in the Green Canyon Block 780, approximately 1400 m water depth. The flagship vessel Saipem Constellation will carry out the marine activities required for the project, which will be managed by Saipem's execution centre in Houston, US, a strategic hub for the company's activities in the region.

This contract represents a significant milestone as it will be the first project involving the deployment of the Saipem Constellation in the Gulf of Mexico and follows a series of awards for projects in Australia and Guyana. In addition, the award proves Saipem's expertise in delivering cutting-edge offshore solutions for the energy industry.
