Al Busttan Company for General Services has signed an Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Lease and Operate (EPCLO) contract with TotalEnergies EP Ratawi Hub (TEPRH) for the design, build and operation of a 200-man Pioneer Camp in the Ratawi Field in Basra.

Pictured at the signing ceremony held at Al Busttan's North Rumaila office are Mr Ismael Shakir, Managing Director of Al Busttan and Mr Kamal Al Atassi, Project Director, Associated Gas Upstream Project-2 (AGUP-2), one of the four  major projects that TEPRH is delivering in the Ratawi Field as part of the Gas Growth Integrated Project (GGIP) operated by TotalEnergies. The Pioneer Camp wil comprise a range of single and multi-occupancy rooms, dining and recreational facilities (including a fully equipped gymnasium and a sports field), offices for 60 persons and a medical clinic.

Camp occupants will include TEPRH AGUP-2 Project personnel and early works personnel for the planned CPF-2 and Network and Wellpads (NWP) projects. Construction on the multi -million-dollar project will start imminently and is scheduled for completion in February 2026.  Al Busttan will then operate the facility for an extended period providing the full suite of life support services including catering and facility management.

The Associated Gas Upstream Project Phase 2 (AGUP2) of the Ratawi oil field's redevelopment will increase production to 210,000 barrels per day (bpd) without routine flaring, starting in 2028.

The GGIP is designed to enhance the development of Iraq's natural resources to improve the country's electricity supply. This 4-in-1 multi-energy project comprises the recovery of gas that is currently flared at three oil fields in southern Iraq to supply electric power plants, the redevelopment of the Ratawi oil field, the construction of a 1 GWac (1.25GWp) solar farm and of a seawater treatment plant.
