Oilfield service firm Petrofac has secured a new contract and an additional scope of work with Petroleum Development Oman (PDO), with a combined value of approximately US$130mn
The new contract award is an engineering, procurement and construction management (EPCM) services contract for the Mabrouk North East Development Project in Oman.
The 34-month project scope awarded involves the development of 16 gas producing wells and export of the production to the Saih Rawl Central Processing Plant. The project will be integrated with the Mabrouk North East Line Pipe Procurement Project, which was awarded to Petrofac in June 2019.
The other scope of work awarded is to provide further services for PDO’s Yibal Khuff Project. This 20-month contract includes detailed engineering, procurement, and support for construction and commissioning of nine additional wells to improve overall plant production, and laying of gas pipeline from Yibal “A” to the main processing facility.
The Yibal Khuff Project, originally awarded to Petrofac in June 2015, is already in an advanced phase of construction and pre-commissioning, and the delivery of additional wells is to be synchronised for overall readiness.
Elie Lahoud, group managing director, engineering and construction, said, “This latest project award under the long-term framework agreement with PDO for Mabrouk North East, and additional scope of work for the Yibal Khuff Project, both further underpin our significant track record and commitment to delivering value in Oman. Our focus will remain on safe operations and maximising in-country value through the continued development of local workforce competence and strong supply chain partnerships.”
