South Korea’s Daewoo Engineering & Construction has won a contract for the Total-led $20 billion Mozambique LNG project in Afungi.

The project’s EPC contractor CCS JV, a venture between Saipem, McDermott, and Chiyoda awarded the deal to Daewoo E&C.

Furthermore, the contract has a price tag of about $455 million and includes the construction of two 6.4 mtpa liquefaction trains.
