LONDON – CNR International has awarded a three-year facilities management contract for the Espoir Field offshore Cote d’Ivoire.

Petrofac’s Asset Solutions business will provide integrated services for the program, with about 110 personnel currently supporting the FPSO both onboard and onshore transferring to Petrofac, following previous owner BW Offshore’s recent sale of the vessel to CNRI.

The switchover/change of operatorship should complete later this month.

Petrofac already works with CNRI in the UK, providing operations and maintenance services to its fields in the northern North Sea.

The company will manage the Espoir contract from its technical hub in Aberdeen.
