Following a risk assessment study by Adnoc Onshore in 2015, it was found that the main accommodation camp at the Asab onshore field development falls within an emergency planning zone (EPZ) that houses one of the ITLs, namely ITL-2, and three associated gas injection trunk lines.

Through this project, Adnoc Onshore is looking to relocate ITL-2 and other trunk lines and structures within a 3.1-kilometre radius of the Asab accommodation camp facility outside the EPZ.

The scope of work on the project involves demolishing around 6.2 kilometres of ITL-2 and reroute it outside the EPZ, along with the flowlines and wellhead units of SB-247, SB-560 and SB-705 (replaced from SB-286).
