Fluor Corp. said Feb. 7 that KPJV, its joint venture team, will carry out FEED for the multiphase pump project in Kazakhstan for Tengizchevroil LLP (TCO). Fluor booked its share of the contract value in 2016’s fourth quarter.

Part of TCO’s major capital program, the project will implement multiphase pump technology across the gathering network of existing oil and gas facilities at the Tengiz and Korolev fields to maintain crude production by reducing wellhead pressure and increasing well deliverability. Some utility systems will also be modified, the press release said.

The integrated project team will be based at Fluor’s Farnborough, U.K. office, linked to TCO’s future growth project – wellhead pressure management team, which is also at that office.
