Phase 1 of the facility, which includes the development of around 20 million barrels of crude storage capacity plus associated infrastructure, is currently under tender.
“The prequalified Engineering-Procurement-Construction (EPC) bidders are busy putting their bids together,” said Said al Maawali, project director — OTTCO. “We expect to receive both the commercial and technical bids by mid-May.”
The crude storage terminal at Ras Markaz at full build will offer a capacity of 200 million barrels, he noted.
