Veolia, through its subsidiary Veolia Water Technologies Gulf, has been awarded a contract by Petrofac to provide process water treatment solutions on Petroleum Development Oman’s Rabab Harweel Integrated Project. The project is scheduled for completion in May 2016.
The agreement will see Veolia support the engineering and supply of water treatment systems for the Rabab Harweel Integrated Project (RHIP) in the south of Oman, which Petrofac is managing on behalf of Petroleum Development Oman (PDO).
The RHIP facility includes sour gas processing facilities as well as associated gathering and injection systems, and export pipelines. It handles the production of oil and gas from the Harweel oil reservoirs via Miscible Gas Injection and the production of gas with condensate from the Rabab reservoir through partial recycling of sour gas. Veolia’s scope will be to provide treated water for different applications including boiler feed, potable water and service water.
Veolia is involved in a number of projects in Oman, and recently announced the extension of the Sur desalination plant 160 km southwest of Muscat is now 70% complete. Once finished, the plant will supply drinking water to almost 600,000 residents.
