Two contracts for IGD project awarded to KBR

These services will be provided through KBR's Leatherhead and Houston offices for the onshore and offshore packages respectively.

The contract has an approximate value of $30 million and a client overall programme cost of $5 billion. The prime objective of the project is to transfer an additional 500mmscfd of HP gas from a new offshore platform at Umm Shaif to a new onshore gas processing facility at Habshan through Das Island.

The produced gas will be initially processed in the ADMA-OPCO facilities at Umm Shaif and then sent to Das Island. The gas and associated liquids will be then further processed at the new GASCO facilities at Habshan and Ruwais.

"KBR's ability to integrate onshore and offshore expertise combined with the skilled personnel in our Leatherhead and Houston offices will give GASCO and ADMA-OPCO the capabilities they need to fulfill the scope of work for the IGD project," said John Rose, executive vice-president, KBR.

Project work started in mid-April and is expected to require approximately 130,000 work hours. The contract has options to extend to cover project management for the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) tendering phase and to cover the overall EPC execution phase.
