Kuwait-based HOT Engineering & Construction Company (Hotecc) has been selected to execute a contract for oil flowlines and associated works in the north of the country, according to a statement published by the company.The contract has been awarded by the state-owned upstream operator Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) and has a duration of three years.Over this period, Hotecc will provide its procurement and construction services, according to the statement.Jamal al-Houti, CEO of Hotecc, said: “We are thrilled to have received this award letter to continue our partnership with KOC as it solidifies Hotecc’s reputation as a leading player in the oil and gas sector in Kuwait.“It is a testament to our dedication to delivering outstanding services to our wide range of clients built upon a very solid foundation of technical expertise, state-of-the-art infrastructure and a highly skilled workforce.“With over 45 years of commitment to excellence, we believe Hotecc has emerged as a trusted partner for top-tier clients in the oil and gas industry.”Flowlines are pipelines that connect a single wellhead to a manifold or process equipment.They are used at onshore and offshore fields and can be located either on the surface or subsurface. Multiple flowlines connect individual wells to a manifold in large oil and gas fields.A gathering line transfers the flow from the manifold to a pre-processing stage or a transportation facility or vessel.Since the start of 2020, KOC has tendered a large volume of flowline projects. Many of these have been worth less than $100m, though several larger project contracts were worth about $250m. (ICE KUWAIT)
