Total E&P Qatar has signed a QR59mn agreement ($16.2mn) with Doha Petroleum Construction Company (Dopet) for the integration and construction works for the Produced Water Treatment and Crude Oil Desalting (PWT/ COD) project at Halul.
The signing ceremony was held in the presence of Stephane Michel, managing director of Total E&P Qatar, and Hamad al-Sa’ee, general manager, Dopet.
The integration and construction work is estimated to cover 600,000 man-hours.
The PWT/COD Project aims to improve the specifications of both the crude oil and the produced water.
“With an overall budget of $60mn, the project outcome is mainly environmental. Following the detailed engineering phase of the project, the construction works will begin in November 2013 and the start up is expected before end-2015. Construction activities will take place on Halul Island simultaneously along with QP and TEPQ ongoing operations,” Total E&P Qatar said.
Michel said: “We are happy to implement this PWT/ COD project, which will improve the quality of the produced water. We are confident that Dopet will be able to complete the project within the time schedule and of course the budget”.
