NEWCASTLE & HOUSTON, November 17, 2025 — TechnipFMC has secured a substantial integrated Engineering, Procurement, Construction, and Installation (iEPCI™) contract from Eni SpA (ENI.MI) for the deepwater Maha project offshore Indonesia. The award marks Eni’s first implementation of TechnipFMC’s Subsea 2.0® configure-to-order (CTO) technology in the country. The contract is worth between $250 million and $500 million.
The Maha development builds on TechnipFMC’s established partnership with Eni in the region, following successful projects such as Jangkrik and Merakes. The new subsea infrastructure will be tied back to the existing Jangkrik Floating Production Unit.
Jonathan Landes, President of Subsea at TechnipFMC, said: “This award represents another important collaboration with a leading energy operator, leveraging our integrated execution model and the advantages of our configurable product platform. The Maha project strengthens our relationship with Eni and demonstrates how Subsea 2.0® technologies and integrated delivery can provide improved schedule certainty.”
Under the contract, TechnipFMC will engineer, manufacture, and install the subsea production system, including Subsea 2.0® tree systems, flexible flowlines, a manifold, and associated control systems.
This follows an earlier announcement made by Eni that the Indonesian authorities have approved the Plans of Development (PODs) for the Geng North field (North Ganal PSC) and the Gehem field (Rapak PSC) back in August 2024. The integrated development of these two fields will establish a new production hub, known as the Northern Hub, in the Kutei Basin. In addition, the authorities have approved the POD for the Gendalo and Gandang fields within the Ganal PSC.
Eni has also recently started gas production from the Merakes East field, in the Kutei basin, offshore Indonesia. The field is in the East Sepinggan block (Eni 85%, Op.) and will contribute up to 100 MMSCFD of gas or approx. 18,000 boepd to Eni’s production. Merakes East is located in a water depth of 1,600 meters, approximately 10 km east of the Merakes Field. It is tied back via a subsea connection to the Jangkrik Floating Production Unit (FPU) operated by Eni, situated around 50 km away. After the initial processing onboard the FPU, the gas will be transferred via pipe network to supply the internal market and the Bontang liquefaction plant, which supplies LNG for both the internal market and for export.
Eni has also been granted a 20-year extension of the Ganal and Rapak Indonesian Deepwater Development (IDD) licenses by the Indonesian authorities.
Eni has planned to develop a major gas and condensate production hub in East Kalimantan, with expected output of approximately 2 billion cubic feet per day (bcf/d) of gas and 80,000 barrels per day (bopd) of condensates. Production will supply both domestic and international markets, leveraging synergies with existing infrastructure in the region, including the Bontang LNG plant and the Jangkrik Floating Production Unit (FPU).
