Share-based Compensation [Abstract]
Stock-based Compensation	STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION On January 11, 2017, we adopted the TechnipFMC plc Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides certain incentives and awards to officers, employees, non-employee directors and consultants of TechnipFMC and its subsidiaries. The Plan allows our Board of Directors to make various types of awards to non-employee directors and the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors to make various types of awards to other eligible individuals. Awards may include stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance units, restricted stock units, restricted stock or other awards authorized under the Plan. All awards are subject to the Plan’s provisions, including all stock-based grants previously issued by FMC Technologies and Technip prior to consummation of the Merger. Under the Plan, 24.1 million ordinary shares were authorized for awards. We recognize compensation expense and the corresponding tax benefits for awards under the Plan. Stock-based compensation expense for nonvested stock units was $11.4 million and $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
