UK oilfield services giant Petrofac has clinched a £60 million deal to provide procurement services for Petroleum Development Oman.

The contract is the third awarded to Petrofac as part of a framework agreement signed in 2017 and relates to the Mabrouk North East Line Pipe Procurement Project in Oman.

Petrofac will identify suppliers of line pipe material over a 19-month period.

Elie Lahoud, a regional manager at Petrofac, said: “We have a strong track record with PDO in Oman and are delighted to have been awarded this latest project under the long-term framework agreement.

“The procurement and management activities for this project will be undertaken from Petrofac’s Muscat office from where we provide first-class expertise in high-value order management.

“We continue to maximise the provision of local goods and services which evidences our ongoing commitment to delivering in-country value through each of the projects we undertake in the Sultanate.”
