TechnipFMC has firmed up its engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning contract for Novatek’s planned Arctic LNG 2 liquefied natural gas development in Russia, writes Eoin O'Cinneide.

The Russian independent this week confirmed the significant deal that will see UK-based TechnipFMC work on the three-train project on the Gydan Peninsula.

Novatek did not disclose any deal value and London-based TechnipFMC had not commented on the contract by the time Upstream went to press.
