MONTREAL, July 16, 2018 /CNW Telbec/ - SNC-Lavalin
(TSX: SNC) subsidiary SNC-Lavalin Engineers and Constructors Inc.
has signed a five-year framework agreement to provide International
General Engineering Services to Al Khafji Joint Operations (KJO), a
joint operations company comprised of Aramco Gulf Operations
Company Limited and Kuwait Gulf Oil Company.
The new framework agreement builds upon an existing five-year
framework contract for In-Kingdom General Engineering Studies
signed in February 2018, and will see
SNC-Lavalin provide a range of engineering services to assist KJO
with engineering for major projects, including new offshore
platforms, jackets and sub-sea pipelines as well as upgrades to
existing offshore platforms and jackets, onshore crude and gas
handling facilities, gas pipeline networks, utilities, waste water
treatment facilities, and instrumentation systems. SNC-Lavalin's
teams based in Houston, Texas and
Al Khobar in Saudi Arabia will
carry out the work, supported by SNC-Lavalin's global centers of
excellence in London, Calgary and Mumbai.
"It's a testament to the strong working relationship between KJO
and our team, built up over almost a decade working together, that
we're able to secure another important framework agreement with
KJO," said Christian Brown,
President, Oil & Gas, SNC-Lavalin. "These agreements allow us
to work closely as a trusted partner to our clients, providing
valuable engineering services over many years."
KJO is responsible for oil and gas exploration, development and
production in the offshore area close to the Saudi-Kuwait border, including the Khafji and Hout
oil fields which have been in production since the 1960s.
