Companies are preparing to submit bids for three packages on a planned gas processing plant at the Fadhili oil field in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Aramco has asked engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractors to submit bids on 27 July, after twice extending the deadline for proposals.
The budget for the Fadhili plant has been expanded to about $6.5bn, according to industry sources, up from initial estimates of $5bn.
Each package is expected to be valued at more than $2bn. Other work connected to the project is expected to be tendered in the future, including a large pipeline package.
