Situated in the Thi Qar province, approximately 5km northwest of Al-Refaei city and 85km north of Nasiriya, the Garraf oil field has an onshore location. Discovered in 1984, this oil field contains oil reserves within Cretaceous reservoirs. Spanning 17.5km in length and 5.5km in width, it is estimated to harbor 1.3 billion barrels of oil. Upon reaching full production, the field’s production capacity is projected to escalate to 230,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd). Transportation of the oil field’s products is facilitated through a 13km pipeline to the Gharraf-Badra tie-in area (GBTA). Subsequently, it is conveyed via a 28-inch, 92km pipeline to the Nassiriyah storage depot.

The expansion of Western Desert Gas Complex (WDGC) is located in El-Amreya, Alexandria, Egypt. Once operational, the new Train D will increase WDGC’s production capacity to 1.5 bcfd, up from the current 950 MMcfd, with a capacity of 600 MMcfd. This expansion will not only boost the supply of ethane-propane mixture for Egyptian petrochemical producers but also increase WDGC’s production of LPG and condensates for the local market.

Zohr, an offshore gas field located in the Shorouk area of Egypt, represents the largest discovery of its kind in the Mediterranean. Identified using advanced offshore exploration techniques, this massive natural gas project lies approximately two hundred kilometers north of Port Said. With vast reserves, Zohr has the potential to meet Egypt’s energy demands for many years to come. Moreover, it positions the country to become a significant player in liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports within the Mediterranean region. The project required the implementation of cutting-edge technological solutions to develop infrastructure that adhered to strict timelines, budgets, and quality standards, from the initial exploration phase to production commencement.
