* The Associated Gas Upstream Project Phase 2: Enhance Ratawi Oil Field production to 210 kbpd with new CPF (CPF2) and additional development wells (AGUP2).
* The Gas Midstream Project - GMP: Valorize the gas from Ratawi, Majoon and Al Qurna West-2 (Phase I) Oil Fields.
* The Common Seawater Supply Project - CSSP: Major water-injection project that will help the long-term production of several fields of South Iraq. The client will only be involved in seawater treatment plant building.
* The Solar Power Plant - SPP: major solar project (PV plant with 1250 GW DC) which will allow to produce power (1000 GW AC) to be injected into the grid.
AGUP Phase 2 specifics
AGUP Phase 2 is the major full field development. It involves drilling around 221 wells, feeding a newly built CPF (CPF2), at clients standards, with a capacity of 210 kbopd. Oil will flow respectively at 60 to 80 kbopd from Yamama (100 MMscfd) and 150 to 130 kbopd from LP reservoirs (30 MMscfd). AGUP2 Project will be developed with the objective to maximize economical results, with a particular focus on the CAPEX, while maintaining the technical quality of the installations, with high H3SE requirements and focus. The project development includes several interfaces with other projects (mainly AGUP Ph1, GMP and CSSP) which shall be managed in an optimized and agile manner.
The country’s context is complex due to several factors and risks to be mitigated all through the project. Particular attention will be paid to safety culture enhancement and to the local content that will be a key factor in the project’s success.
