The consolidated company of OQ is one of the largest incorporated energy companies of the Sultanate of Oman in the field of oil and gas.
Located in Muscat, the MAF refinery was commissioned in 1982 and was the first one built in Oman. Its capacity has been increased over the years and now reaches 106K BPSD1. The existing wastewater treatment facility is outdated, and not adapted to handle the flows generated by the refinery. Hence, the need for a complete overhaul to ensure the quality of effluents leaving the site and compliance with environmental discharge standards.
Our solution
In 2019, Seureca conducted a feasibility study to define the implementation of a new, compliant, and safe effluent treatment facility.
Based on this successful outcome, Seureca was awarded the Front End Engineering Design (FEED) study in 2020 to prepare a turnkey EPC package for the deployment of this urgent solution for environmental protection. The project’s novel context entails specific challenges for which Seureca’s expertise, as well as the Veolia Group, stands apart:
- Designing the plant in an extremely limited footprint, on a very busy industrial site;
- Defining the project’s development without impacting the refinery’s continuity of services nor the discharge of effluents;
- Combining multiple engineering disciplines into a single package
