AQUENOR originates, structures, and delivers complete floating production solutions for essential resources like water, power, methanol, ammonia, and LNG.
We identify critical needs — such as water scarcity or stranded gas reserves — and develop tailored concepts that align feedstock availability with long-term market demand.
Our integrated approach transforms isolated resources into bankable, scalable solutions. These modular, vessel-based systems offer faster, more flexible, and fully financeable alternatives to conventional land-based infrastructure.
Who We Are
Our Mission
Deliver fast, financeable, and flexible offshore production infrastructure solutions, unlocking essential resources for sovereigns, industrials, and emerging markets. Built on financial rigor, technical innovation, and operational discipline. The name AQUENOR combines “aqua” (water) with “enor,” from a classical European root meaning honor, reflecting our commitment to precision, resilience, and long-term value.
Our Team
Founded by experienced developers with decades of cumulative expertise in large-scale export infrastructure, including LNG, FLNG, and vessel-based production systems. Our leadership team has deep, hands-on experience in project origination, structuring, financing, EPC negotiation, permitting, and operational oversight. This includes working directly with shipyards, permitting authorities, sovereign stakeholders, offtakers, and financial institutions across global markets.
We understand what it takes to move complex projects from concept to bankable stage, balancing financial discipline, technical innovation, and operational integrity.
What We Deliver
Full Lifecycle Project Development
From origination to final commissioning. This includes identifying viable feedstock, securing offtake, selecting the right technology, managing permitting, structuring finance, and delivering fully integrated floating production solutions, ensuring each project reaches a bankable stage.
Applications
FDESAL
Floating desalination for municipal, industrial, and island use.
FPOWER
Floating gas or LNG power for coastal grids and clusters.
FMETH
