CENTRAL KUWAIT - JANUARY 13: Kuwaiti oil production tanks are reflected in a lake of spilled oil at the Burgan oil field January 13, 2003 in Central Kuwait. The oil field, the largest in the world, was targeted by retreating Iraqi troops in 1991 in a scorched earth campaign ordered by Iraqi president Saddam Hussein. Today most of the facilities at Burgan have been rebuilt and it supplies more than 1.4 million barrrels of oil per day for export. (Photo by Scott Nelson/Getty Images).

Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) has issued a tender for an Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contract for the Sabriya & Bahra Field Water Separation Facility.
The project involves the construction of a water separation facility at Gathering Centres (GC) 23 and 24, along with a water injection facility at GC-31.
The tender was issued on 15 December 2024 with a bid submission deadline of 16 March 2025.
“The contract is expected to be awarded in July 2025, with project completion targeted for the first quarter of 2028,” a source aware of the details told Zawya Projects.

This project is part of KOC’s broader strategy to support sustainable crude oil production in northern oil fields.
