What KANFA LTD does

KANFA AS is a Norway-headquartered EPC contractor specializing in modular process systems and engineering services for the global offshore oil & gas and emerging energy-transition markets. Founded in 2000 and 100% owned by Technip Energies (Euronext Paris-listed), the company designs and delivers topside process modules — including separation, gas treatment, produced-water treatment, chemical injection, combined-cycle power generation (HRSG) and offshore electrification (patented heat pump) packages — for FPSO, FLNG and fixed offshore production facilities, with delivered module weights ranging from sub-1,000 tonne skids to FPSO topsides up to 10,000 tonnes. Operations span engineering centers in Lysaker (Oslo) and Trondheim, with fabrication executed through partner yards in Vietnam (PV Shipyard), Singapore (SembCorp Marine), Dubai (Drydocks World), Norway and Spain.

The company has actively pivoted into decarbonisation under two co-branded parent portfolios: Canopy by T.EN (modular post-combustion carbon capture using Shell CANSOLV technology, including the Rakkestad waste-to-energy full-scale CCUS plant and Canadian pilot units for Heidelberg Materials and Teck Resources) and GO.H2 by T.EN (offshore green hydrogen and Power-to-X concepts with DNV Approval in Principle). These complement a five-year engineering partnership with MacGregor on CO2 ship-to-ship offloading and technology integrations with Black & Veatch (HRSG) and Inocean (hydrogen hulls).

KANFA generates revenue through project-based, multi-year EPC contracts and engineering service agreements (concept studies, FEED, detailed engineering), plus equipment supply. Sales are predominantly direct to enterprise customers (FPSO operators, FLNG owners, energy majors, industrial emitters), with the GTM motion also leveraging Technip Energies' global customer relationships. Pricing is fully custom per project with no public tiers; revenue is therefore lumpy and tied to FPSO/FLNG sanctioning cycles. The firm has no disclosed headcount, no public revenue figures, no independent fundraising history (subsidiary funding flows through Technip Energies), and no AI/ML or software product surface.
