The pipelines will connect three wellhead platforms, WHP7, WHP8 and WHP9, with the onshore facilities at Ras Laffan Industrial City.

"Winning this project signifies our customer's confidence in our capability to handle major projects with successful results," said Hafez Aghili, J. Ray's Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Middle East and India. "Construction work is underway on the three associated wellhead topsides (WHP7, WHP8 and WHP9) that were awarded to us in 2006. As such, we'll be able to offer greater synergy in operation for the pipeline project as based on our project team's experience to execute the topsides contract."

The project will be executed by J. Ray's Jebel Ali (United Arab Emirates) based project team and marine equipment. The scope of work also involves laying a total of 138km of combined power and fibre-optic cables interconnecting the wellhead platforms with the onshore facilities, as well as two 0.5km long 22" diameter intra-field pipelines. These intra-field pipelines are fabricated with Corrosion Resistant Alloy material.
