Canadian engineering and construction company SNC-Lavalin has won a contract from Saudi Aramco to provide engineering and project management services for gas oil separation at the Berri field on the Kingdom’s east coast, the firm said on Saturday.
New facilities will be added to Saudi Aramco’s existing plants at Abu Ali and Khursaniyah to process a potential increased output of Arabian Light crude from the Berri field.
The value of the contract was not disclosed in the statement, but is estimated at $1.7 billion, unnamed sources told Reuters last week.
SNC-Lavalin is to set up preliminary front end engineering design (FEED) for a new gas oil separation plant with a capacity of 250,000 barrels of oil per calendar day at the existing Abu Ali Gas Plant.
It will also prepare engineering designs for additional facilities at the Khursaniyah Gas Plant that will process 40 million barrels per day of hydrocarbon condensate.
Under the contract, Saudi Aramco may also use SNC-Lavalin’s technical support services for the construction phase, the statement added.
The FEED project is to begin this month with the pre-EPC construction stage services expected to be complete by August 2018.
