Iraq gas contracts worth $11M secured by Wood Group
Baghdad ( – Wood Group has been awarded two engineering and procurement contracts worth a combined $11 million by a TotalEnergies subsidiary for work on a major gas development project in Iraq's Ratawi field.
The contracts are part of the Gas Growth Integrated Project (GGIP), where TotalEnergies holds a 45% stake.
Specifically, the deals come from TotalEnergies EP Ratawi Hub and will support the Associated Gas Upstream Project (AGUP) over a three-year period.
The initiative aims to enhance existing infrastructure and increase production capacity to 120,000 barrels of oil per day once its initial phase is complete.
Wood's teams in Basra and the United Arab Emirates will fulfill the contracts, and as the scopes develop, additional roles will be created, according to the Abderdeen-based firm.
'We have held six recruitment days, hiring 70 Iraqis to work at the Ratawi operations hub across a range of disciplines including HSE, logistics, quality, construction, welding, electrical and document control,' says Shaun Dewar, Senior Vice President of Operations, Middle East and Africa at Wood.
