FPSO Baobab Ivoirien

This FPSO was built for the development of the Baobab field, located approximately 65 km southwest of Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, in West Africa.

MODEC was responsible for the Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Installation (EPCI) of the FPSO and commenced both charter and operations & maintenance (O&M) services in August 2005.

In February 2025, MODEC transferred ownership of the FPSO to CNR, concluding the charter contract, while the O&M contract remained in force and is currently scheduled through December 2026.

* This FPSO was renamed from “FPSO Baobab Ivoirien MV10” to “FPSO Baobab Ivoirien” following the transfer of ownership.
