Groupement Bir Seba is composed of Algeria’s state-owned Sonatrach, Petrovietnam Exploration Production Corporation, and PTT Exploration & Production Algeria, a subsidiary of Thailand’s national oil company PTTEP.

The overall contract value is approximately USD 400 million. The scope of work includes full Engineering, Procurement and Construction activities.
The project entails the expansion of an existing oil central processing facility, with the installation of a new oil separation train to double the total capacity up to 40,000 barrels of oil per day.

Project completion is scheduled after 40 months from the contract effective date.
