Norway-headquartered oil industry supplier Eureka, a provider of pumping and power solutions to the offshore energy industries that is part of the Techouse Group, has been hired by Singapore’s Yinson Production, a subsidiary of Kuala Lumpur-based energy infrastructure and technology company Yinson, to supply a back-up power generator set for a floating production, storage, and offloading (FPSO) deployed in Nigerian waters.
This contract with Yinson Production for the FPSO Abigail-Joseph ’s back-up power module will see Eureka engineer, manufacture, and deliver a turnkey containerized generator set for use as an essential back-up power source on board the FPSO, which is deployed at the Anyala and Madu fields , located offshore Nigeria.
The company will manage engineering and procurement from its headquarters at Fornebu outside Oslo, Norway, and office in Zenica, Bosnia-Hercegovina. The Norwegian firm’s facility at Sørumsand, north of Oslo, will manage manufacturing and assembly of the containerized generator set.
Ole-Johan Øby Svendsen , Chief Commercial Officer at Eureka, commented: “We have extensive experience from delivering various types of gensets to offshore assets all over the world. We apply a stringent and high-quality execution model to ensure that we deliver the right quality at the right time, in line with Yinson Production’s expectations.”
This tailor-made generator set incorporates an optimized design to cater for a high-speed engine solution. Eureka’s service team in Norway will manage commissioning, start-up, and provide operational support when the equipment is installed on board the FPSO. The firm has not disclosed the value of the contract.
Tom Munkejord , CEO of Eureka, underlined: “We have a highly flexible and competent organization that understands the importance of designing and developing a robust product with a long lifespan. With the FPSO located far from shore, the operator needs to be certain that it has a reliable back-up power source. That is exactly what we will provide.”
The vessel is owned by Yinson Production and currently leased to First E&P offshore Nigeria. The Asian FPSO giant told Offshore-Energy.biz at the start of the year that it would continue to use its lease-and-operate model , while remaining focused on operational excellence and disciplined execution in 2026.
