Adnoc upstream executive director Yaser Saeed Almazrouei said: “This EPC award demonstrates how ADNOC is leveraging advanced technologies such as smart wells with state-of-the-art remote capabilities, to drive higher performance from our assets and resources, and to generate additional value.

“The award underpins our strategic objectives to expand production capacity and create a more profitable upstream business with over half of the contract value flowing back into the UAE’s economy, supporting local businesses and stimulating economic growth.”

The Bu Hasa asset is one of Adnoc’s oldest oil fields. It is in production since 1965.

Adnoc awarded a contract in 2018 for the Bu Hasa Integrated Field Development Project (BUIFDP) to boost production and sustain long-term production.

It forms a part of the firm’s strategy to expand its crude oil production capacity to five million barrels per day by 2030.
