Client: Kuwait Oil Company
Project value: US$4 billion – leading a consortium with Consolidated Contractors Company
Location: Northern Kuwait

In 2015, Petrofac was awarded a contract by Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) for the first phase of the Lower Fars heavy oil development programme, located in Northern Kuwait.

Petrofac is leading a consortium with Athens-based Consolidated Contractors Company (CCC). The project is worth in excess of US$4 billion, with Petrofac’s share approximately US$3 billion.

The scope of work covers greenfield and brownfield facilities and includes engineering, procurement, construction, pre-commissioning, commissioning (EPC), start-up and operations and maintenance work for the main central processing facility (CPF) and associated infrastructure as well as the production support complex. This includes a pipeline of almost 162 km which will transport the heavy crude from the CPF to the South Tank Farm located in Ahmadi, from where KOC has the option to send it to the proposed Al-Zour refinery in the south of Kuwait.
