The Katla field is located in water depths of approximately 310ft in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea.
FMC’s scope of supply for Katla includes the manufacture of three subsea trees, one manifold and associated subsea and topside control systems.
It is one of three additional options included in the previously announced Pan Pandora project awarded to FMC Technologies in June.
As with Pan Pandora, all equipment for Katla will be based on a standard subsea solution designed by FMC for Statoil.
The equipment will be manufactured and assembled at FMC’s facilities in Dunfermline, Scotland, and Kongsberg, Norway, and the deliveries are scheduled to commence in the second quarter of 2011.
