History
1958
Technip, an engineering company, was founded in Paris with a workforce of 100 people
1960’s
First series of international successes with the completion of projects in Africa and Asia
1970’s
Technip becomes an international group with the creation of an office in Rome and the creation of Technip Geoproduction, a subsidiary specialized in hydrocarbon field equipment. During this period, Coflexip – a firm specialized in the design, manufacture and supply of flexible subsea flowlines– is created by the IFP (French Petroleum Institute) and opens a flexible flowline manufacturing plant in Le Trait, France, as well as offices in Houston, Aberdeen and Rio de Janeiro.
1980’s
Technip expands its global presence and opens operating centers in Kuala Lumpur and Abu Dhabi. Coflexip opens a second flowline manufacturing plant in Brazil]] and branches out into the manufacture of umbilicals with the establishment of the Duco plant in Newcastle, UK.
1990’s
Technip is listed on the Paris Stock Exchange and Coflexip is listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Coflexip acquires Stena Offshore while Technip becomes a world-leading engineering group through the acquisition of companies with strong technological expertise: Speichim, Krebs and KTI. Established in the United States, KTI enables Technip to set up in North America.
2000’s
Coflexip acquires Aker Maritime’s Deepwater Division. Technip merges with Coflexip and the unified group becomes a world leader in engineering, technologies and services for the oil and gas industry. Many major contracts are signed, notably in the Middle East in the liquefied natural gas (LNG), ethylene and refining sectors.
