San Donato Milanese/Italy — The company has been awarded a contract in Saudi Arabia by the national oil company Saudi Arabian Oil Company (Saudi Aramco) for procurement and construction in relation to the “South Gas Compression Plant Pipelines” project for the development of the Haradh gas plant (Hdgp), located in the east of the country. The project comes under the Southern Area Energy Efficiency Program.

The scope of work encompasses the construction of a system of pipelines of various diameter, with an overall length of over 700 km, and includes flowlines, trunklines and transmission lines, as well as associated facilities for the transportation of gas from various points of storage and distribution inside the plant.

A further contract has been awarded by Exxon Mobil Iraq Limited for the DS6 project for the debottlenecking of the West Qurna field, in the south east of Iraq.

The works will have a duration of 23 months and will mainly be executed in the Rumahila fabrication yard, owned by Saipem.

Through its subsidiary Saimexicana, the company has also been awarded a contract by Petróleos Mexicanos (Pemex), the national Mexican oil company for works in the "Miguel Hidalgo" refinery located in Tula de Hallende.
