The Antonini Group, an Italian engineering and construction company, has secured a $217 million contract for the construction of the Sabratha platform compression project in Libya.
The project, commissioned by the Mellitah Oil and Gas Company – a joint venture between Libya’s state-owned National Oil Corporation and Italian firm Eniv– will involve the creation of a compression unit to be installed on a gas platform situated 42 m above sea level and 120 m from the Libyan coast in Sabratha.
This project is anticipated to span approximately 27 months, with a six-month operational phase to build a floating structure.
In addition to the Sabratha project, the company has signed a separate $18.6 million contract for the construction of structures designed to expedite the drilling process in the field.
