Project Profile
Value: US$500 million
Location: 80 kms to the West of Doha
Area: 80km by 8km
Production: 335,000 Barrels per day
Dukhan is a big oil field extending over an area of approximately 80 km by 8 km and is located over 80 kms to the West of Doha. Dukhan Field encompasses four reservoirs from North to South - Khatiyah, Fahahil and Jaleha/Diyab, three of which are oil resrvoirs, and fourth contains non-associated gas. Oil and gas are separated in four main degassing stations which are continuously manned namely Khatiyah North, Khatiyah Main, Fahahil Main and Jaleha. Unmanned satellite stations are Fahahil North and Fahahil South, while Khatiyah South is now a manned station. The Diyab satellite station at the South end of the field has no process facilities and the total oil production is sent to Jaleha station for processing. Stabilised crude oil is transported through pipeline to Mesaieed port about 100 km East of Dukhan.
Dukhan oil field has production facilities to produce up to 335,000 Barrels per day (BPD). Other production facilities are related to Associated Gas, Non Associated gas, Raw NGL production from Associated gas, Arab D gas cap NGL and Arab D condensate production. In addition to this, facilities for injection of North Field gas into Khuff Reservoir, Injection of lean gas into Arab D gas cap and water injection into the main oil reservoirs of Arab C and Arab D for pressure maintenance are also operated on continuous basis in Dukhan.
