TechnipFMC plc,
an oil and gas services company in London, agreed Tuesday to pay criminal penalties of $296 million to resolve violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practice Act in Brazil and Iraq.
The DOJ
assessed total criminal penalties of $296 million against TechnipFMC and its U.S. subsidiary.
But the DOJ said TechnipFMC would pay about $214 million of the total penalties to enforcement authorities in Brazil.
The portion of penalties paid to the DOJ amounted to $81.9 million.
Technip’s former consultant in Brazil,
Zwi Skornicki,
