2/8/2015
Parsons, an engineering, construction and technical and management services firm headquartered in California, US, has been awarded a front-end engineering design (FEED) deal for South Oil Company’s Common Seawater Supply Project in southern Iraq. This landmark project will provide 12.5 million barrels per day (bpd) of treated seawater to oilfields in southern Iraq, said a statement from the company. Parsons’ scope of work includes conducting 14 optimisation studies and preparing the Feed for water intake and outfall structures, an approximate 500‑m shipping channel and offloading facility, a 12.5‑million‑bpd seawater treatment facility, and a gas turbine power plant. The other support structures included in the Feed are living accommodation; administration buildings; potable water and sewage treatment systems; security, clinic, maintenance, and warehouse facilities; an emergency station; a mosque; and a helipad. As per the contract, Parsons will also design, construct and operate a 9,200‑bpd pilot plant at the site. On the contract win, Virginia Grebbien, the group president, said: "Parsons is pleased to be engaged in the design of this facility, which is one of the largest of its kind worldwide. Providing treated seawater to southern Iraqi oilfields will ensure proper oil reservoir maintenance and maximize oil recovery." Parsons, celebrating 70 years of growth in the engineering, construction, technical, and professional services industries, is a leader in many diversified markets with a focus on defense/security, industrial, and infrastructure, he added.-TradeArabia News Service
