The development of Lianzi project located offshore between Angola and Congo is estimated to cost about $2bn and is expected to produce 46,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day.
Under the contract, GE will supply seven trees, nine subsea control modules, topside and subsea controls distribution equipment and vertical connection systems, to help Chevron carry out the engineering, procurement and construction project.
GE Oil & Gas Subsea Systems vice president Rod Christie said, "West Africa is one of the world’s key hydrocarbon basins, and we are excited to be working with Chevron Overseas Congo Limited as operator of the Lianzi project, the first cross-border development in the region."
The first tree will be completed in the final quarter of 2013 for the project delivery.
