KBR, Inc. announced it has been awarded a Project Management Consultancy (PMC) Services contract by Oman Liquefied Natural Gas L.L.C. (Oman LNG) for a new 120 MW gas engine power plant which is aimed to reduce fuel gas consumption and greenhouse gas emissions while maintaining LNG production at Oman LNG's existing LNG plant in Sur, Oman.

Under the terms of this reimbursable contract, KBR will provide PMC services to assist Oman LNG in the selection and management of the successful EPC contractor for the project in Oman over a three year period.

KBR is a recognized leader in LNG with over 40 years of continuous experience and depth of capability, know-how and engineering talent that is unmatched in the industry.

"We are proud of the pivotal role that KBR has played in the development of this project during the pre-FEED and FEED phases and are excited to continue to grow our substantial presence in the Middle East through this contract," said Jay Ibrahim, KBR President, Europe, Middle East and Africa and Asia-Pacific.

"KBR remains firmly committed to Oman and I am very pleased to announce that we will be establishing permanent offices based in Muscat to support this work as well as other clients in Oman," Ibrahim continued. "With a stronger foothold in Oman, KBR will be in a better place to provide new job opportunities for local talent and professionals in close collaboration with the Omani government and local institutions."

Estimated revenue associated with this contract will be booked into backlog of unfilled orders for KBR's Hydrocarbons Services Business Segment in the second quarter of 2018.
