Description
Technip Offshore Finland, a manufacturer of oil drilling platforms, has announced redundancies of 190 production personnel from its plant in Pori. The company has concluded negotiations which started in September 2013.
Technip originally planned to reduce 250 production personnel. In addition to 190 dismissals announced now, the company will lay off another 250 employees temporarily. As reported, the reason for the redundancies is the cancellation of an order by oil company BP.
