LONDON, Apr. 24 -- Kazakhstan North Caspian Operating Co. (Agip KCO) has awarded a $105 million contract, with a $10 million additional option, to UK-based Petrofac Ltd. for design and procurement of a fourth sales gas compressor train in Kashagan's gas and LPG plant in Kazakhstan.
Petrofac also will make modifications to debottleneck the first and second tranch of the gas treatment plant.
"The project is necessary to accommodate the additional gas associated with the processing of the production from the third oil train," Petrofac said. It will carry out the work as an amendment to its previous existing gas treatment plant contract.
Petrofac's work to date on the Experimental Phase of the Kashagan field development project includes engineering, procurement and construction management for the oil treatment plant, gas and LPG treatment plant, and sulphur treatment plant.
