Bahrain: Bapco FEED contract for Technip


Issue 977 - 19 Sep 2014 | 1 minute read

Paris-based Technip has been awarded the front-end engineering design (FEED) contract to expand The Bahrain Petroleum Company (Bapco) refinery, to increase throughput at Sitra to 360,000 b/d from 267,000 b/d, while improving the refiner’s product slate and profitability. The project – which is less ambitious than Bapco and the government originally envisaged – is essential to Bahrain, which generates most of its income from the export of refined products. Work will be carried out from Technip’s operating centre in Rome, Italy, in co-operation with its Abu Dhabi unit. The FEED contract is scheduled for completion at end-2015.
