Fulkrum establishes new Iraq entity

Fulkrum, a leader in inspection, expediting, auditing, and technical staffing services, has launched a new entity in Basra, Iraq

It follows the award of a multi-million dollar contract to the company for the provision of surveillance services for a major gas hub development project in the region.

The new local entity will enable Fulkrum to improve service delivery for new and existing clients, including several leading operators in the region. This strategic expansion marks a key step in advancing Fulkrum’s operational capabilities across Iraq’s growing energy sector.

The gas hub development project in Iraq for which Fulkrum was awarded the major contract will play a key role in the country’s energy infrastructure. The first gas processing train is designed with provisions for future growth, ensuring scalability in plant layout, Integrated Control and Safety Systems (ICSS), and power infrastructure. Fulkrum’s scope of work includes monitoring quality control, quality assurance, expediting, project & procurement management and other activities.

Fulkrum’s regional manager for the Middle East and Caspian, Muhammad Tayyab said, “Being locally based allows us to streamline operations and deliver customised services that meet the evolving needs of our clients. This positions us to better support our existing partners and pursue further opportunities with key operators in Iraq.”

He added that the gas hub project is a significant win for Fulkrum and marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for its team in Iraq.

“We are proud to contribute to a project that will enhance the region’s energy capabilities and are committed to delivering our high standards of service throughout its execution.”
