Context and Environment
The South Gas Company (SGC), a governmental sector company part of the Iraqi Ministry of Oil companies, has been tasked in developing a Gas Hub in Southern Iraq Basra province.
The objective is to valorize currently flared associated gas from regional oil fields by gathering and transporting this gas to a new gas processing plant (GPP). This development is called Gas Midstream Project (GMP) and is part of GGIP (Gas Growth Integrated Project) DPC (Development & Production Contract), which has been signed between the Iraqi authorities represented by BOC & SGC and a Contractor JV composed of TotalEnergies (WI 45% Operator), BOC (WI 30%) and Qatar Energy (WI 25%).
The execution of the project has been delegated to the Contractor JV under SGC supervision as representative of the Iraqi authorities.
The Gas Midstream Project (GMP) scope includes:
- A Gas gathering system:
- Import raw gas pipelines from upstream gas compression stations i.e. Majnoon, WQ2, Ratawi,
- Export production pipelines (dry gas, LPG & Condensate) and raw water import pipelines.
- A Gas Processing Plant (GPP) facility located in Ratawi, that will process RAW GAS to produce:
- DRY GAS (C1 & C2).
- LPG (C3 & C4).
- CONDENSATES (C5+).
- Condensate storage and export facilities (off-loading jetty) located in Umm Qasr.
The immediate development plan is to design and install a first gas processing train of 300 MMSCFD as part of Phase 1 of GMP. However, the process plant, the layout, the ICSS, the power plant, etc., of the GPP shall be developed in a way that is expandable for a second gas processing train of the same capacity.
Accountabilities
- Executing assigned scopes of work.
- Supporting and supervising task delegation to the team.
- Providing discipline expertise to the business.
- Perform Process screening of project scopes at initiation.
- Participating in any Engineering and Process workshops when required.
