Senimdi Kurylys LLP, an equal joint venture between ENKA and Bechtel, was awarded the contract for the Mechanical, Electrical and Instrumentation installation works for the Third Generation Project (3GP) in May 2018.

The 3GP is part of TCO’s Future Growth Project (FGP) which is an integrated project being developed primarily to increase the production capacity of the Tengiz Oil Field by an additional 12 million tons per year (260,000 barrels per day) and its gas production capacity by an additional 27 million m³ per day.

The project is being carried out using a modularized construction strategy, with modules constructed both at Kazakh coastal fabrication yards and other fabrication yards in Europe and the Far East.

The project includes construction work for the crude processing plant, as well as the module stacking, sour water stripper and utility areas.

Mechanical, electrical and instrumentation works and module stacking, installation and hook-up are included within the scope of the project.
