Complete multi-discipline engineering for 20″ ALCO and 24″ HFO fuel pipelines for HANWHA Engineering & Construction company

Customer benefited from our local presence global resourcing model. Citec offered local support from its office in Saudi Arabia with engineering done by our oil & gas experts in India.

Project description

The project consisted of the design of 19 km oil pipelines from Yanbu crude oil terminal to Yanbu 2 power plant in Saudi Arabia. Since, the Yanbu crude oil terminal was built almost 20 years back, getting information for the interfaces and existing drawings was challenging.
