North Sea a ‘tremendous laboratory’ for new technology, TechnipFMC boss says

The boss at energy service giant TechnipFMC said yesterday that the North Sea is a “tremendous laboratory” for testing new ideas and technology.

Executive chairman Thierry Pilenko said some of the best ideas relating to digitalisation were coming from the region, which will be a testing ground for the firm’s next generation of products.

Mr Pilenko also said the North Sea was recovering from the downturn earlier than other parts of the world and that TechnipFMC expects more opportunities to arise there in the coming years.
