Global engineering and consulting firm Wood has been awarded a contract to provide detailed engineering design for Package 5 of ADNOC Offshore’s Lower Zakum Long-Term Development Phase 1 project on Das Island, Wood announced on Wednesday.
The contract was awarded by Abu Dhabi-based Target Engineering Construction Company, the EPC contractor for Phase 1 of the project. Scope of work includes three new oil processing trains featuring separation, desalting, dehydration and oil stabilisation systems, a new seawater offshore platform and associated utilities.
The value of the contract was not disclosed.
The Lower Zakum field is located approximately 65 kilometres northwest of Abu Dhabi and is a key offshore asset in ADNOC’s portfolio. The development aims to expand and sustain a production capacity of 450,000 bopd through 2035.
“Wood’s experience in complex engineering design across the Middle East will support Target Engineering and ADNOC Offshore to deliver the goal of maximum energy with minimum emissions. More than 200 Wood engineers from across the UAE, India and the UK will support this project for the next two years,” said Gerry Traynor, president of eastern hemisphere projects at Wood.
Wood previously completed FEED for Lower Zakum and was involved in ADNOC’s Early Production Scheme-2 project in 2024.
