Basra, Iraq - May 31, 2021

The China Petroleum Engineering & Construction Corporation (CPECC) subcontracted the civil works component of the Major Tie-Ins Degassing Station 8 (MTI-DS8) project to AWI. The MTI-DS8 connects new/ongoing major projects in DS8 (i.e., Produced Water, Industrial Water and Initial Oil Train projects) with the existing facilities in the station.

Valued at USD 3.5 million, AWI’s scope for the project includes the construction of foundations for the following:

Crude storages
Utility and separator pipe racks
Closed drain facilities
Process flare knock out drum and associated equipment

Subcontracting civil works to AWI for this important project demonstrates CPECC’s trust on the quality of AWI’s work as well as on the company’s ability to complete complex projects on schedule.

Started in May 2021, the project is expected to be completed by January 2022.
