Sonatrach Inks Deal with Petrofac/Bonatti

Thursday, October 31, 2013

Sonatrach signed a $668 million contract with a consortium made up of Petrofac and Bonatti for the construction of a gas compression project in the Sahara desert.

The project aims to maintain production levels at the Alrar Est and Ouest gas fields in the Illizi basin, where reservoir pressure is falling, and where output currently stands at 24 Mmcm/d.

The project is expected to take 32 months to complete and will also improve the treatment of natural gas liquids such as condensate and LPG.
