Milestone Delivery

TechnipFMC has delivered its 100th Subsea 2.0 tree to Shell, marking a significant milestone in their collaboration. The tree was manufactured, assembled, and tested at TechnipFMC’s facility in Nusajaya, Malaysia, and will be used in a Shell project in the Gulf of America.

Subsea 2.0 Platform

Subsea 2.0, launched in 2015, is a standardized, configurable subsea product platform designed to streamline engineering through modularity. It includes manifolds and integrated 800 Series controls, which manage the flow of oil and gas from subsea wellheads. The platform's modular design reduces lead time and accelerates time to first oil and gas production.

Global Adoption

Subsea 2.0 has been widely adopted by operators, with half of TechnipFMC’s tree orders in 2024 being for this platform. The product is installed in projects across Australia, Brazil, the Gulf of America, Guyana, the Mediterranean, and West Africa.

Manufacturing Efficiency

To meet demand, TechnipFMC established a dedicated manufacturing line for Subsea 2.0 in Nusajaya in 2022. This line allows for a higher volume of trees and reduces lead time by about a third compared to engineered-to-order solutions. The repeatable, configurable technology enhances production efficiency and quality.
