TotalEnergies’ Iraqi gas processing project lands new contractor

TotalEnergies contractor ENKA İnşaat ve Sanayi AŞ (ENKA) has selected KBR to provide detailed engineering design services for the Associated Gas Upstream Project Phase 2 (AGUP2), as part of the Gas Growth Integrated Project (GGIP) operated by TotalEnergies alongside its partners BOC and Qatar Energy, in the Basra region of Iraq.

The award follows KBR’s delivery of the front-end engineering design (FEED) for the same development, the company said in a release Nov. 6.

Under the letter of award, KBR will provide multi-discipline detailed engineering design from its global engineering centers, enabling ENKA’s execution of the engineering, procurement, supply, construction, and commissioning (EPSCC) scope for the central processing plant.

The aim of the AGUP2 project, due to start in 2028, is to process oil and associated gas from Ratawi oil field to increase production capacity to 210,000 b/d of oil and 154 MMscfd of gas while working to eliminate routine flaring.
