ExxonMobil Iraq Limited contracted AWI to supply and deliver diesel fuel at Basra / Burjesia and West Qurna 1 oil field. The contract will run from September 2021 to 2025.
Under the contract, AWI will supply diesel fuel as per ASTM Specification No. “D 95.” The activities include fuel quality monitoring and testing, bulk tank / temporary storage management, labor and transport to ExxonMobil designated locations at Field Operations Division Main Office Facility, Oasis Camp, Degassing Stations 6,7,8, 35MW Power Plant, selected drilling sites and MOD 300 facilities. The supply of fuel will be sourced locally from Basra Oil Company refinery stations.
Through the project, AWI has proven its capability to acquire the necessary licenses and capabilities to venture outside its traditional service areas. AWI has built a fleet of 10, 20 and 36 cubic meters of fuel trucks as well as hired experienced and certified local drivers and fuel dispatchers to enable efficient implementation of the contract.
Among the top companies providing logistics services in Iraq, AWI considers the ExxonMobil fuel supply and transport project as an opportunity to vertically diversify its offerings to the upstream oil and gas market.
