Petrofac has received an award notification for Kuwait Oil Co.’s (KOC) manifold group trunkline (MGT) system in north Kuwait, according to a news release.

The engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) project, valued at about $780 million, is integral to KOC’s plans to increase and maintain crude production over the next five years, Petrofac said in the release. Three new gathering centers (GCs), which form part of the broader project, are already under construction with Petrofac executing the EPC contract for GC 29.

Due for completion toward the end of 2017, Petrofac said the MGT system will provide the feedstock to each of the GCs via three independent networks of intermediate manifolds and pipelines. Each of the three GCs will be capable of producing around 100,000 barrels of oil per day together with associated water and gas.
