2016.
SHI was awarded the contract for the Engineering, Procurement, Construction,
Integration, and Commissioning of the 2.3 million barrels capacity FPSO for the Egina oil
field, located in Oil Mining Lease (OML) 130, offshore Nigeria.
Nicolas Terraz, managing director and chief executive of Total Upstream Companies in
Nigeria, confirmed to journalists on the sidelines of the recent 2017 Nigeria Annual
International Conference and Exhibition of the Society for Petroleum Engineers (SPE),
that the Egina FPSO would sail away from Samsung Heavy Industries yard in South Korea
by the fourth quarter of this year.
Represented by the companys executive director in charge of corporate affairs and

services, Abiodun Afolabi, the Total Group boss added that the FPSO will arrive in Nigeria
after the fourth quarter where the six locally fabricated topside modules will be integrated
on the FPSO at SHI-MCI Yard before final sail-away to Egina field, deep offshore Nigeria.
Meanwhile, after the local integration of the six FPSOs modules and over 8,000 tons of
structures, the FPSO will sail away to the Egina oil field, which will add 200,000 barrels
per day to Nigerias current crude oil production when it comes on stream in 2018.
It is worthy of note that this is the first ever integration of the FPSO in Nigeria, and
indeed, Africa, to be carried out in the Lagos Samsung Yard (SHI-MCI FZE), and will
potentially create thousands of direct and indirect jobs in the country.
Apart from the FPSO integration facility, the Samsung Yard also has a fabrication
workshop that is the first of its kind in Africa.
Investigation shows that while the existing fabrication yards in Nigeria can only fabricate
simple structures and platforms, the Samsung Yard can fabricate complex FPSO modules.
The fabrication workshop was completed by SHI in June 2015, while the construction

So far, SHI has invested $300 million in the SHI-MCI yard, which consists of yard area,
assembly shop, assembly yard, fully enclosed blasting and painting shop, warehouse,
African first quay wall for FPSO integration, heavy lift with large capacity and sufficient
water depth by dredging work.
Apart from the financial investment, SHI has also provided the managerial and technical
skill sets, technology and expertise, which are being gradually transferred to Nigerians,
thus boosting the local capacity and capability in the oil and gas industry.
In the course of the work, SHI also brought in world-class experts in construction of deep
offshore facilities, who have transferred their skills and competences to thousands of
Nigerians that understudied them.
A lot of Nigerian engineers were trained by SHI for one year in nine engineering
disciplines mechanical, process, structural, piping, electrical, quality assurance, project
controls, interface and instrumentation, during the detailed engineering stage of the
project
At the construction phase of the project, huge numbers of Nigerians were trained directly
and indirectly in construction-related areas, while many have also acquired international
certifications in several skill sets and competencies coating inspection, non-destructive
testing, project planning, welding engineering and inspection, lifting operations, cost
control, welding, machining and lifting, among others.
Already, 1,200 direct jobs were created for Nigerians in the areas of project management,
welding, fitting, logistics and other support services, therefore fitting into the employment
generation of the present Nigerian government.
The Korean firm has effectively used local sub-contractors and suppliers, with the
cooperation of Total and the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board
(NCDMB).
