KBR has been tasked with supporting the upgrade of facilities across the Marjan offshore field in the Gulf on behalf of Saudi Aramco, work that will include embedding new digital technology, automation and power system solutions.
Under its contract, KBR will provide engineering and project execution services to support key offshore processing, gas compression and power infrastructure facilities within the Marjan field.
The project is expected to maintain production capacity following recent field developments.
It is also expected to help advance associated gas processing capabilities and strengthen long-term performance of critical offshore assets through the integration of digital technologies, automation, and power system enhancements.
“For KBR, this award reflects our long project execution relationship with Aramco,” said Jay Ibrahim, President, Sustainable Technology Solutions, KBR.
“By combining our deep offshore engineering expertise with advanced automation and digital integration, we aim to help achieve Aramco’s expectations.”
KBR has supported major energy projects across the Middle East for decades, delivering engineering, technology and programme management solutions to help optimise the performance and reliability of onshore and offshore assets.
The company said in a statement that the Marjan engineering work is expected to be executed primarily from its Houston and Al-Khobar offices.
