The project involves the installation of a new central injection pumping facility and modifications to three of the existing gathering centers and seawater treatment plant.
When completed, both effluent water and sea water will be fed into a central injection pumping facility and injected into the wells with the objective of increasing the oil recovery capacity in the Raudhatain and Sabriyah fields. The project is estimated for completion within 36 months.
Maroun Semaan, chief operating officer of Petrofac, said: “KOC is an important customer for Petrofac, and the water injection project, together with the pipeline contract awarded at the end of July, enables us to extend our operations in Kuwait and further consolidates our competitive position in the Middle East.”
