TechnipFMC Umbilicals, a key player in offshore technology, has experienced a notable increase in revenue and profits. The company attributes this growth to a resurgence in large-scale orders.
Located in Newcastle, TechnipFMC’s success is marked by substantial contracts, especially in the energy sector. The firm continues to expand its influence with projects spanning Europe, the UK, and North America.
The Tyneside-based operation of TechnipFMC has reported a substantial increase in both revenue and operating profit. Last year, revenue rose to more than £98 million, an improvement from the previous year’s £95.5 million. Operating profit also grew from £3.3 million to £4.4 million, reflecting a 352% increase in orders, which management attributed to strategic timing and execution.
A particularly notable project is the $1 billion agreement with Equinor Energy do Brasil Ltda. This complex undertaking involves comprehensive deployment of Technip’s products across various depths. The project underscores TechnipFMC’s expertise in managing large-scale offshore operations efficiently.
TechnipFMC anticipates further growth as it embarks on new projects, like the £4 billion East Coast Cluster carbon capture initiative. This venture will see the Newcastle plant playing a critical role in developing offshore subsea systems, further solidifying the company’s position in the industry.
The directors emphasise the necessity for the company to adapt to the changing needs of their clients. With the long-term demand for energy expected to rise, the firm is committed to providing cost-effective and technologically advanced solutions to their clientele.
The directors mention the company’s robust position in adapting to renewable energy demands, stating that their assets are suitable for providing solutions in this expanding market. The ability to offer competitive technologies remains a top priority.
The outlook for crude oil and gas has shown improvement, and despite market uncertainties, TechnipFMC remains confident in its strategy and assets. The firm believes that fostering early interactions with suppliers is key to maintaining a competitive edge.
The firm’s ongoing commitment to research and development will play a vital role in supporting its strategic objectives, ensuring long-term success and resilience in the face of industry changes.
TechnipFMC Umbilicals stands as a leader in offshore technology, with significant financial gains driven by strategic contracts and innovative projects.
