A major milestone has been achieved in the delivery of the Erawin Field Development Project in Libya, with the safe introduction of first oil.

With some of the largest oil reserves in Africa, Libya is positioning itself to become a major oil and gas producer. Petrofac, leveraging over 20 years of experience in North Africa, is supporting Zallaf Libya Oil & Gas Exploration and Production Company to help develop critical infrastructure, ensure safe and secure operations, and boost production capacity at the Erawin oil field.

In 2021, Petrofac was awarded a US$100 million contract to engineer, procure, construct, and commission surface facilities at the Erawin oil field, in the country's southwest. The scope includes well pads, flowlines, and a pipeline to transport crude oil approximately 100 kilometers to the El Sharara oil field. Additionally, Petrofac is responsible for constructing a control room, substation, and telecom system at El Sharara.
