Canadian engineering contractor SNC-Lavalin has been awarded a framework agreement for project support services for phase 2 of the West Qurna oil field in Iraq.
Russian energy company Lukoil is the operator of the project.
SNC-Lavalin’s scope will include the provision of engineering, design activities and project support services for the development of the Mishrif and Yamama formations of the West Qurna 2 oil field.
The project will be executed in-country at the West Qurna phase 2 oil field, as well as from SNC-Lavalin’s base in the UAE. The firm did not reveal the value of the contract in its statement.
The contractor will also provide training and professional development to local Iraqi professionals.
The West Qurna phase 2 oil field is located in southern Iraq, 65 kilometres north-west of Basra.
MEED reported in July that Lukoil invited bids for two jobs as part of its West Qurna 2 project. West Qurna phase 2 is split into three main phases: two phases for the Mishrif formation and one for the Yamama formation.
The required surface facilities for Yamama and Mishrif include major elements such as well pads, oil gathering flowlines, headers and trunklines, a central processing facility and its associated utilities and offsites, oil/gas/liquid petroleum gas export pipelines, additional storage tanks at an existing facility, power plant, water intake and supply pipelines.
