PETROFAC CONSORTIUM AWARDED EPC PROJECT IN ALGERIA
Petrofac, leading a consortium with Genie Civil et Batiment (GCB), has
received notification of a provisional award for an engineering,
procurement and construction contract with Sonatrach for the Tinrhert EPC2
Development Project in Algeria. The contract is valued at approximately
US$300 million, with Petrofac’s share around US$200 million.
Located in Alrar, around 1,500 kilometres southeast of Algiers, EPC2 will
provide a new Central Processing Facility (CPF) with inlet separation and
decarbonisation units. The scope of work also includes tie ins to the
existing Alrar Separation and Boosting Facilities, which Petrofac
originally helped deliver in 2018, along with commissioning, start-up and
performance testing. When completed, the development will boost natural
gas production and remove CO2 from the field’s gas reserves, within
specifications for the global market, enabling further economic growth
in-country.
Elie Lahoud, Chief Operating Officer for Petrofac’s Engineering &
Construction division said: “The Petrofac and GCB consortium is testament
to our focus on local delivery, through investment in local supply chains
and work forces. We are very pleased to have been notified of this
provisional award by Sonatrach, which reflects their confidence in our
ability to drive in-country value, whilst safely delivering strategically
significant energy infrastructure.”
Petrofac has decades of experience in Algeria with a strong track record
of safe execution. In 2018 the Company was awarded a contract with
Sonatrach for Tinrhert EPC1, which, includes delivery of a new inlet
separation and compression centre, successfully extending the existing
Ohanet CPF. This project recently achieved a major milestone with the safe
introduction of the first hydrocarbons for the start-up of production.
