SNC-Lavalin awarded SCOP project

SNC-Lavalin has been awarded a contract by the Iraq Ministry of Oil's State company for Oil Projects (SCOP) to provide engineering services for the Iraq Export pipeline project.

Working closely with SCOP, SNC-Lavalin will provide front-end engineering design (FEED); long-lead items tendering and evaluation; and engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) tendering and evaluation for two pipeline systems and five pump station facilities.

Once completed, the pipeline system will transport 2.25 million bpd of crude oil and 285 million ft³/day of natural gas from a station near Basra to a station near Haitha. The work will be carried out from SNC-Lavalin's offices in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

"We are very pleased to support SCOP," said Terrance Ivers, Executive Vice President, Oil & Gas, SNC-Lavalin Group Inc. "The Iraq Export pipeline project is well aligned with SNC-Lavalin's extensive pipeline capabilities and experience in the Middle East."

SNC-Lavalin is one of the leading engineering and construction groups in the world, and is a major player in the ownership of infrastructure and in the provision of operations and maintenance services.
