For Cabinda Gulf Oil Company, a Chevron affiliate, AMEC is providing project management, engineering, procurement, and construction support services for the Area “A” Gas Management Programme to eliminate routine gas flaring in key Angolan developments, both onshore and offshore.

In a related effort, the programme included fast-track engineering and installation of high-pressure injection facilities, pipelines, and a wellhead platform to support the start-up and operation of new facilities for the offshore Benguela-Belize-Lobito-Tomboco fields.

For the new Takula Gas Processing Platform, AMEC provided detailed engineering and procurement services directly to Samsung Heavy Industries, a South Korean fabricator. A significant portion of the platform foundation and offshore programme works was fabricated in various yard locations throughout Angola.
