The Assiut oil refinery in Egypt is undergoing a significant expansion and modernization effort to meet the rising demand for petroleum products in Upper Egypt. As part of the refinery upgrade, new facilities including a naphtha complex and a hydrocracking complex will be added. This expansion and modernization initiative will further boost the refining capacity of the existing refinery. Presently, the refinery processes 4.5 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) of distillation crude.

Saipem FDS is a multi-purpose DP3 field development vessel designed for ultra-deepwater subsea construction. Capable of laying rigid pipelines, flexible flowlines and umbilicals, it also installs subsea structures using its J-lay system, advanced dynamic positioning system, ROVs and heavy-lift crane, making it a versatile solution for complex offshore field development projects.

The CLOV Phase 3 Project is an offshore deepwater oil field development in Block 17, approximately 140 km off the Angolan coast. Operated by TotalEnergies, the project includes the installation of a four-well subsea production system connected to the existing CLOV floating production facility. The development is intended to increase oil output by approximately 30,000 barrels per day while maximizing the use of existing offshore infrastructure.
