Australian engineering group Worley has been awarded a contract to provide main front-end engineering design (FEED) services for the Nigeria-Morocco Gas Pipeline (NMGP) project, the company said on April 26. The engineering study is progressing in accordance with the initial project planning.
When completed, the over 7,000 km long gas pipeline, being promoted by Office National des Hydrocarbures et des Mines (ONHYM) of Morocco and Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) of Nigeria, will link Nigeria with Morocco, cross 11 west African countries and extend to Europe.

Additionally, the pipeline will provide a new avenue for countries along the route to export their gas to their neighboring countries and Europe, Worley said.
The overall FEED services will be managed by Intecsea, Worley’s offshore engineering consultancy business in the Netherlands. This includes the development of the project implementation framework and supervision of the engineering survey.
The onshore FEED scope, the environmental and social impact assessment and land acquisition studies will be delivered by Worley’s team in London. The project will also be supported by its network of offices in Africa, and the global integrated delivery team in Hyderabad, India.
