HOUSTON The Liza Unity FPSO has received the first REMOTE-CON notation for an FPSO from ABS.

ABS says the REMOTE-CON notation demonstrates the vessel’s alignment with remote-control functions and signifies that the design and construction of the offshore asset are assessed against and adhere to the ABS "Requirements for Autonomous and Remote Control Functions."

Representatives from ABS, SBM Offshore (operator) and ExxonMobil Guyana (owner), met at the 2024 Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) for an official presentation of the new class notation.

The Liza Unity is the second FPSO to be built for ExxonMobil Guyana’s Stabroek Block development and the first delivered under SBM Offshore’s Fast4Ward program.

It was also the first FPSO to receive the SUSTAIN-1 notation from ABS, which means the vessel aligns with elements of the ESG requirements outlined in the UN's sustainable development goals.
