Veolia to treat water from one of BP’s biggest gasfield projects
BP has just chosen Veolia to design, build and run a treatment plant for raw water, associated with operating the Khazzan gas field, located south-west of Muscat, in the Sultanate of Oman.
Having won the tender, Veolia will be part of one of BP’s biggest gasfield exploitation projects: a final total of 300 gas wells, producing 28.3 million cubic metres of gas per day by 2017.
The mission is: to design and build a plant which, from January 2015, will have an output of 6,000m³ per day: 4,000m³ per day, of process water and 2,000m³ per day of drinking water.
This water production is essential for the implementation of this outstanding project of the Omani economy as water management has become a major challenge for the energy industry.
