Engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) company KBR has secured a contract to provide the project management consulting services for Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).
Under the contract, KBR will provide front-end engineering design (FEED) services at NNPC’s headquarters in Abuja, Nigeria.
The company will serve as co-consultant with the National Engineering and Technical Company (NETCO) to provide technical consulting services for four greenfield refineries in the Assa North / Ohaji South (ANOH) and Western Forcados area.
Work is expected to last for over six months and will involve KBR providing strategic advisory consulting on condensate elimination from oil export streams.
The company noted that the elimination of condensate will reduce dependency and cost of imported refined products.
KBR will conduct the work from its Leatherhead office in the UK with support from the Middle East and Houston, US.
