Malaysia’s Ranhill Utilities has confirmed that its joint venture with global engineering major Worley has been awarded an engineering contract for work on giant offshore compression facilities for Qatar’s North Field Production Sustainability (NFPS) project.
The contract worth approximately $50 million from a subsidiary of Italy’s Saipem includes engineering design work, which is expected to be completed by the third quarter of 2024.
Last year, Saipem was awarded a record $4.5 billion engineering, procurement, fabrication and installation contract by Qatargas for the NFPS project, located off the coast of Qatar.
Its EPCI workscope includes two offshore natural gas compression complexes intended to sustain production at the North Field, the company said.
