Mubasher: Petrofac, a UK oil and gas contractor, announced on Tuesday that it has signed a contract worth close to $600 million with Salalah LPG SFZCO (SLPG), wholly owned subsidiary of Oman Oil Facilities Development Company (OOFDC), to handle the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of its Salalah LPG extraction project in southern Oman. 

Under the 36-month contract, Salalah LPG will construct the liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) unit and associated facilities, including tie-ins to existing pipeline infrastructure, together with LPG storage and jetty facilities at the Port of Salalah, according to a statement.

“This contract is our eleventh in the Sultanate and reinforces our commitment to Oman where we have been present since 1988,” Petrofac Group Chief Operating Officer, Marwan Chedid, said.

“This project will further support our commitment to increase in-country value.  We will continue to maintain strong focus on this aspect of our delivery, particularly by engaging the local supply chain and recruiting local resources. We are very much looking forward to growing and strengthening our team working alongside OOFDC to deliver this project,” he added.
