QATAR SHELL PEARL GTL - MAINTENANCE CONTRACT

QATAR SHELL PEARL GTL - MAINTENANCE CONTRACT

In 2013, Kentech Qatar was awarded two strategic maintenance contracts by Qatar Shell GTL comprising of over 3 million manhours of works over a five year period.

Following the initial award of the HVAC General Maintenance & Engineering Support Services contract in September 2013, which will run for an initial duration of just over 5 years, Kentech was awarded an additional contract to provide Electrical & Instrumentation Maintenance Services also.

The Qatar Shell GTL Plant, Pearl GTL, is located in Ras Laffan Industrial City, 80 km north of Doha, Qatar and is the world’s largest gas to liquids (GTL) plant. The scope of services involves the provision of HVAC Maintenance & Engineering Services and Electrical and Instrumentation Maintenance Services and the Kentech team are executing the routine maintenance services at the GTL plant and other surrounding sites within RAS Laffan Industrial City.

Kentech is providing the supervision, labour, tools, equipment, spare parts and materials etc. required to carry out all the HVAC equipment and E&I maintenance services. The aim is to mitigate all threats to the availability of the plant’s HVAC equipment and systems by reducing the system and equipment failure rate and optimising the frequency of routine maintenance efforts.  Kentech is fully integrating with the Pearl GTL maintenance team and developed a Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM) Plan to achieve the above within the first year of the contract period.

This contract adds to Kentech’s working history on the Pearl GTL Plant. During the construction phase of the plant, Kentech provided electrical, instrumentation, HVAC and firewater ring main construction and testing works on the Water Treatment Plant, which forms an integral part of the gas to liquids process. We then continued to support Pearl GTL by providing maintenance personnel starting from the commissioning phase of the plant.
