Coral North is the second project for the development of the considerable gas resources discovered by Eni in Area 4 of the Rovuma Basin. The Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) unit will have a capacity of around 3.5 MTPA (million tons for year). Managed by Eni and its partners, the project involves the deployment of a second Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) facility to double the region’s LNG production, building on the success of the Coral South project.

At the center of the project, Coral Sul FLNG: a floating plant for the liquefaction of natural gas. The ship is 432 meters long and weighs 200 thousand tons. It also has a gas liquefaction capacity of 3.4 million tons per year and will produce LNG from the 500 billion cubic meters of gas from the Coral field. This historic project will help increase the availability of gas on the global market and is an important lever of Mozambique economic and social development.

Saipem FDS is a multi-purpose DP3 field development vessel designed for ultra-deepwater subsea construction. Capable of laying rigid pipelines, flexible flowlines and umbilicals, it also installs subsea structures using its J-lay system, advanced dynamic positioning system, ROVs and heavy-lift crane, making it a versatile solution for complex offshore field development projects.
