Kentz Kazakhstan LLP, is pleased to announce the award of a five year mulit-discipline contract for construction services by Tengizchevroil LLP (TCO) to support the continued development of the Tengiz oilfield in Kazakhstan.

Kentz will be providing structural, mechanical and piping (SMP) construction services, pipelines repair and construction services, and its expertise in electrical and instrumentation (E&I) construction. The contract will be executed through the Construction Business Unit.

The Tengizchevroil LLP joint-venture was formed in 1993 to develop the Tengiz and Korolev oilfields. Chevron has a 50 percent interest in Tengizchevroil. Other partners are KazMunaiGas, 20 percent; ExxonMobil Kazakhstan Ventures Inc., 25 percent; and LUKArco, 5 percent.

Eoin Hurley, Chief Operating Officer, Construction for Kentz commented: "Our team has been on the ground in Kazakhstan in order to build the presence required to successfully tender awards such as this and being selected to work with Tengizchevroil on the vast Tengiz oilfield project is a great achievement. There is no set value to this contract as its foundations are on the provision of construction services when required."
