The scope includes forging and machining of production riser joints for 10 riser systems and additional spare components, and an option for additional riser systems. The contract value for the first 10 riser systems is 9,4 mill USD. The contract positions Scana for potential additional deliveries in the future replacements for the project as well as upcoming pursuits elsewhere in the world. Manufacturing is planned to start immediately and deliveries will commence from 4th quarter 2010 to 2012 in batch deliveries. The contract will also involve our subsidiary Scana Steel Björneborg in addition to Scana Subsea fronting the contract. CEO in Scana Industrier ASA, mr Rolf Roverud, is most pleased with this breakthrough contract. -This is the first major contract for Scana Subsea, which was formed to strengthen our efforts towards the riser market within oil and gas. The award order recognizes Scana material knowledge combined with product realization through our plant capabilities. -Scana implemented a number of strategic measures in 2009, including investing in companies and facilities, pursuing strategic cooperation and establishing new business in new markets. This contract intent with FMC and a high level of tendering for attractive projects prove that these efforts have strengthened our competitive position. We expect our order inflow within oil and gas will increase significantly in 2010, Roverud says.
