Penspen, a leading global provider of engineering and project management services to the energy industry, has signed an agreement with Matrix Construction to provide modification works at Bab and Asab fields, located west of Abu Dhabi. The fields are owned and operated by the Abu Dhabi Company for Onshore Petroleum Operations Ltd (ADCO)
Earlier this year, ADCO commissioned a project to upgrade the facilities at the fields, in order to improve reliability, integrity and performance. Penspen has been sub-contracted the detailed engineering works by Matrix Construction, the EPC contractor.
The works on Bab and Asab fields comprise of planned modifications and improvements on non-associated gas facilities. Penspen previously carried out the FEED work for this project.
Chafic Mansour, project manager at Matrix Construction, says, “We chose to work with Penspen because they presented a highly competent team to us, with a strong mix of skills which will complement our requirements, particularly in the Instrument and Control arena. What’s more, since Penspen had already completed excellent work on the FEED, we had confidence that they were the best team for the job.”
Michael Simm, EVP Middle East and APAC, Penspen, adds, “We have worked on a number of ADCO projects and I’m delighted to be working with Matrix Construction in helping to upgrade the instrumentation and controls performance of these two key fields.”
