The Dutch Company of FPSO SBM Offshore Ordered Two New FPSO Hulls in China. These Will Be the Fourth and Fifth Hulls from SBM Ordered Under the Company’s Fast4Ward Program.

The SBM Offshore Fast4Ward program includes standardized FPSO, designed to accelerate deployment time and reduce construction costs. The Dutch company said on Thursday that it ordered the two hulls from Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding and Offshore Co., Ltd. (SWS) and China Merchants Industry Holdings (CMIH).

The two shipyards are currently working on the construction of the first three hulls from SBM Offshore, which are already allocated to the projects.

Bruno Chabas, CEO of SBM Offshore: “We continue to have good visibility due to new active commitments with clients. This has given the company the comfort to accelerate the program and commit to two additional Fast4Ward hulls. Currently, the Company is building five hulls simultaneously, which highlights the fundamentals of our market and SBM Offshore’s competitive position. During this period of growing demand, SBM Offshore remains disciplined and selective regarding market opportunities.”
