UK-based engineering and project management company AMEC has secured a contract renewal from Kuwait Oil (KOC) to provide project management consultancy (PMC) services for a portfolio of major upstream projects.

The award of the £255m five-year call-off contract follows the company’s successful delivery of two previous five-year contracts held since 2004 and was won in a competitive tender.

As part of the deal, AMEC will provide services ranging from front-end engineering design (FEED), PMC services, engineering, construction management and training of Kuwaiti engineers.

Most of the work will be managed and delivered by a 250-strong team of the company’s engineers in Kuwait, while FEED execution will be handled from AMEC’s London design office.

AMEC Kuwait operations director Alan Armstrong said that the contract is further evidence of the company’s success in the Middle East region.

"We are delivering value for our customer and helping them achieve their 2030 vision of maximising the strategic value from the country’s oil and gas reserves," he added.
