National Petroleum Construction Company to Use AVEVA PDMS for Key Project
AVEVA announced that National Petroleum Construction Company ( NPCC ), a global oil & gas EPC contractor, has chosen AVEVA Plant Design Management solutions for use on its part of the Umm Shaif redevelopment project for ADMA OPCO.
NPCC, whose facilities are located at Mussafah near Abu Dhabi city, provides clients with total Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) services in the development of offshore and onshore oil & gas fields for the Arabian Gulf and the regional markets.
AVEVA PDMS will initially be used for the ADMA OPCO offshore platform project that NPCC is working on. NPCC's involvement comprises two new well head towers (namely US 40/56 and US 40/24) located in the Umm Shaif field, plus two new 24" sub sea pipelines, each starting from the new well head to the existing Umm Shaif Super Complex (USSC).
AVEVA PDMS is used by NPCC's Engineering section, which has multi-discipline capabilities to handle large offshore and onshore projects, from front end design to construction engineering. NPCC Engineering utilises the state-of-the-art industry standard software in various disciplines for the execution of projects.
According to Dr Ahmad Kurdali, Engineering Manager of NPCC: "We are going to use PDMS throughout all phases of the project. After the 3D modeling and design, the design drawings and isometrics will be generated by PDMS. We will also be integrating the PDMS model with the structural steel detailing software to optimise the production of fabrication drawings."
Louay Dahmash, Regional Director of AVEVA comments "PDMS has proven yet again that it offers clients the flexibility and efficiency that is required by design solutions. We are proud to be working with NPCC on this project and look forward to assisting them with future projects."
