KBR to design BP’s Shah Deniz processing project

KBR was awarded a contract by BP to provide detailed engineering and procurement support services for the Shah Deniz Stage 2 Project located in the Azerbaijan sector of the Caspian Sea.

It will be booked into backlog in the fourth quarter 2013.

The contract win follows KBR's successful completion of FEED services for Shah Deniz Stage 2 and will be delivered through the company's offices in the UK, Singapore and Indonesia.

“KBR is delighted to continue our longstanding relationship with BP and its partners by taking this world class energy project to the execution stage and follows KBR’s 20 year presence and successful track record in Azerbaijan working with BP on both the Shah Deniz and ACG fields,” said Roy Oelking, hydrocarbons group president for KBR.

KBR will provide engineering design and procurement support services for an offshore complex consisting of two bridge-linked fixed jacket platforms as well as an onshore gas processing facility.

The onshore facility consists of two gas processing trains with 900 mmscf/d capacity each and condensate processing facilities with about 105 mbd capacity located adjacent to the existing Shah Deniz Stage 1 facilities at Sangachal Terminal.

This work will start in January 2014 and run through to 2018.
