Kuwait Gulf Oil Co. (KGOC) has awarded a contract to Technip for the engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning assistance of their Gas and Condensate Export System project, which is spread over onshore and offshore locations in two countries, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait.
The objective of this project is to deliver a combination of lean gas, condensate and sour gas through a single 12in export pipeline from Al Khafji Joint Operations (KJO) facilities in Saudi Arabia to Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) tie-in facility, namely the Intermediate Slug Catcher being constructed under KOC Project No. EF-1718 near Al-Ahmadi, Kuwait.

The facilities will also assist KPC/KJO in achieving one of their primary targets of 1% flaring by reducing the gas flared and additionally monetize valuable hydrocarbon resources. Total export pipeline length is 110km, with 4 kilometres onshore in Saudi Arabia, followed by 47km offshore and 59km onshore in Kuwait. Technip’s operating centre in Abu Dhabi will execute the project, which is scheduled to be completed by second semester of 2014.
