KBR has won a contract from Saudi Aramco to support the upgrade of facilities across the Marjan offshore field in the Arabian Gulf.

Scope of the work

Under the contract, KBR will provide engineering and project execution services covering offshore processing, gas compression, and power infrastructure facilities within the Marjan field.

The project is expected to maintain Marjan's production capacity following recent field developments. It is also expected to help advance associated gas processing capabilities and strengthen the long-term performance of offshore assets, through the integration of digital technologies, automation, and power system upgrades.
