Dana Petroleum, on behalf of the Western Isles license partners, has today signed two agreements with Sevan Marine for the application of a Sevan FPSO for the development of the Western Isles project:

A Technology License Agreement granting rights to use Sevan Marine’s patented technology for the cylindrically shaped FPSO
and A Service Agreement providing the project with relevant expertise for support during the FPSO EPC project execution.

The COSCO Nantong and Qidong Shipyards in China will be responsible for the construction of the FPSO.
