Under the terms of the project, Petrofac will install a new central injection pumping facility and make modifications to three of the existing gathering centres and seawater treatment plant. When completed, both effluent water and seawater will be fed into a central injection pumping facility and injected into the wells with the objective of increasing the oil recovery capacity in the Raudhatain and Sabriyah fields, Kuwait.
Maroun Semaan, Petrofac’s group chief operating officer said: “We are delighted to have secured two contracts with KOC in two weeks. KOC is an important customer for Petrofac, and the water injection project announced today, together with the pipeline contract awarded at the end of July, enables us to extend our operations in Kuwait and further consolidates our competitive position in the Middle East.”
The competitively tendered project is scheduled to commence shortly and estimated for completion within 36 months.
