Agreement to strengthen FLNG collaboration

In December 2012, Shell and the Technip-Samsung Consortium signed anagreement to enhance collaboration on the design, engineering, procurement,construction and installation of future innovative FLNG solutions across a wide

range of opportunities in thefuture. For example, Shell’s FLNGLean technology would be ableto process additional gas andproduce more LNG, opening upnew business opportunities forcountries looking to developtheir gas resources.

SHELL

Generic FLNG

On July 28, 2009, two contracts were signed in Paris with Shell:

a master agreement with a consortium comprising Technip and Samsung for the design, construction and installationof multiple floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) facilities over a period of up to fifteen years.

a contract with the same consortium for the execution of the front end engineering and design (FEED) for Shell's3.6 Mtpa FLNG solution.

Prelude FLNG, Western Australia

On March 8, 2010 a contract was signed in Paris with Shell, covering the FEED elements specific to the Prelude project,taking into account the composition of the gas, local weather conditions and other site-specific factors.

On May 30, 2011, Shell gave notice to proceed with the detailed design and construction of Prelude, the first FLNGfacility in the world.

On June 29, 2012, Shell awarded Technip a large subsea installation contract, including management of key interfaces withthe hook-up and commissioning of the Prelude FLNG facility.

FLNG is a true representation ofTechnip's technological differentiationthrough the integration of all our coreactivities: LNG process, offshorefacilities and subsea infrastructure

FLNG solutions have the potential to place gasliquefaction facilities directly over offshore gasfields, thereby precluding the need for longdistance pipelines and extensive onshoreinfrastructure. This innovative alternative to traditional onshoreLNG plants provides a commercially attractiveand environmentally friendly approach formonetisation of offshore gas fields.

Major FLNG contracts signed since 2009

These awards confirm Technip's position as the leading FLNG engineering contractor

Process schemes Improved processes have been developed by Technip’sprocess engineers to meet the requirements of the newcontext of Floating LNG, including:

Ideas for improving natural gas liquefaction Gas condensate stabilisation producing a rich gas fordirect liquefaction without LPG production Production of high purity N2 from the natural gas

Hull motionsThe design of topside equipment requires thecollaboration of an entire team of naval architects, piping,process and equipment engineers, critical equipmentsuppliers, installation specialists and engineers skilled inadvanced numerical modelling.

Accelerations are quantified and loads on mechanicalequipment checked with vendors.

The effects of hull motions on gas/liquid separation inprocess equipment are studied, when necessary, withprocess licensors and suppliers.

Addressing FLNG challenges

Technip has strong technical skills in many of the areascritical to FLNG. New tools and solutions have been developed or existingmethods adapted to meet the specific needs of FLNGvessels operating in harsh environments.

Experimental validation of models for cryogenic spill

Determination of flare structuretemperatures under the effect ofradiation

Naval architecture Naval Architects had to address several new challenges:

Sheer size - larger than any existing FPSO Harsh environmental conditionsWeathervaning systems suitable for the 10,000-yearstormLNG cryogenic transfer between two floating units inthe open sea Accommodating a wide range of LNG and LPG carriers

The development of the FLNG/TMS solution for ShellPrelude was enabled by combining Technip'smarine/MetOcean expertise with that of Shell, SBM andSamsung.

Design solutions are helped by a series of two tests:

Wind tunnel tests to derive wind and current loads onthe FLNG with and without an LNG carrier present.

Wave basin model tests with FLNG and LNG carrierscovering:

Mooring in harsh, category 5 cyclone conditionsDecay and motion response testsBerthing and mooring and the equipment requiredbetween the two vesselsThe loads generated when towing these large units

FLNG projects have an increased number of design andconstruction interfaces. To mitigate the risk from poormanagement, Technip has developed and is using aspecific Interface Management Tool - IMT, that allows fulltechnical and commercial alignment between multipleparties at each interface.

Interface management

Safety - Risks from cryogenic and hazardous fluidsThe challenge for the safe layout of an FLNG facility is thelarge process area required in a reduced footprint leadingto relatively high congestion and tall modules.

Our risk-based approach assesses potential consequencesand associated frequencies to derive appropriatesafeguards and mitigation measures. Among process risks(fire and explosion) and non-process risks (ship collision,dropped object, etc.), the hazards of personnel and assetexposure to cryogenic fluids are specific safety drivers.

As a prime example, the potential consequences ofcryogenic spillage on deck and hull structures are studiedto define the best counter measures.

The objective is to minimise the potential for escalationand promote safe escape. In the event of major accidents,the goal is evacuation and rescue of personnel whilemaintaining asset integrity.

FLNG flare radiation at deck level is potentially muchhigher than for conventional FPSO’s requiring the use ofstate-of-the-art modeling tools.
