Work is scheduled to begin in October 2010, with first gas expected from the project in the second quarter of 2014.

The project comprises engineering and procurement, supply, construction, commissioning and start-up.

Petrofac group chief operating officer Maroun Semaan said: “We are pleased to have been awarded this important contract with Total, a major international customer for our group. The contract, which has been secured following an extensive project definition and competitive bidding process, forms part of the strategic growth plan for the Offshore Engineering & Operations business and marks our first EPC contract in the UK.”
