The Development and Production Service Contract (DPSC) for the Garraf Contract Area
was signed between South Oil Company (SOC), PETRONAS Carigali Sdn. Bhd, Japan
Petroleum Exploration Co. Ltd and North Oil Company on 18th January 2010, and was
made effective on 10th February 2010. Under the DPSC, PETRONAS Carigali Sdn. Bhd.
was appointed as the Operator. On 12th August 2010, SOC had expressed its non-
objection to the transfer and assignment by PCIHBV Sdn. Bhd. of its entire rights and
obligations under the DPSC to PETRONAS Carigali Iraq Holding B.V. (PCIHBV) in
accordance with Article 28.2 of the DPSC.
Garraf field takes its name from the Shatt Al Garraf waterway, a tributary of the River
Tigris. It is one of a group of undeveloped fields sometimes referred to as the Garraf axis
fields. The others include Nasiriyah and Rafidain.
Garraf Field is situated in the Southern part of Iraq, in the Thi Qar Governorate, some 5
km Northwest of Al Refaei city and 85 km North of Nasiriyah. Garraf is an anticlinal
structure aligned Northwest – Southeast, about 31 km long and 10 km wide.
Two (2) proven formation in Garraf are being considered for development, namely
Mishrif and Yamama. At the same time, there are opportunities available to appraise
deeper Zubair and Ratawi formations.

GARRAF FINAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN (GFDP)
The overall Garraf FDP comprises of oil production train and pipeline, gathering system
and wellpad design, integrated gas processing plant, water injection & treatment system,
sulphur utilisation system and associated facilities. The overall Garraf FDP is designed
to accommodate the 250 KBOPD received from the Mishrif in 2020 and 78 KBOPD
received from Yamama wells by 2026 which will be processed in five (5) Mishrif oil
processing trains and 2 Yamama oil processing trains. The 2x50 KBOPD oil processing
train facilities is expected to achieve First Commercial Production (FCP) by 2013.
The FCP facilities are designed on modular concept consisting 2 units of 50,000 BOPD
production train capacities each. The export crude is metered and exported through a
new 11 km x 18” heavy oil export pipeline to a tie-in point at 24” Ahdab pipeline.
Figure 1.1-2: Garraf FCP Facilities and Tie-in to Garraf Gas Evacuation System
During FCP, gas will be utilized for internal consumption while remaining gas will be
flared until readiness of gas evacuation system in 2015. To minimize gas flaring, the gas
evacuation system will be implemented in phases.
The gas evacuation system will be expanded in 2015 in-line with maximum forecast
associated gas production from Mishrif. The integrated gas plant taking into

GARRAF FINAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN (GFDP)
consideration of sour gas treatment and processing, LPG and sulphur recovery facilities
will be implemented in line with Yamama development.
Upon achievement of FCP, the production will be further ramped up in phases to reach
PPT. Ultimately, the facilities in FCP will be expanded and added with new equipment
and machinery to cater for full production from both Mishrif and Yamama formations.
Sulphur will be produced from Yamama gas treatment plant due to high H2S content,
when Yamama wells are utilised for production for FDP. A sulphur recovery unit is
considered to be installed downstream of each Yamama gas treatment plant.
The Mishrif and Yamama production capacities will be enhanced in phases by additional
oil and gas trains. The number and capacity of the trains will be governed by the
production profiles, logistics, processing schemes and economics of the various
development scenarios. Consideration was given to the bulk water separation for
increased water-cut in well fluid over the years and also common and new utilities for the
additional trains while evaluating these configurations for FDP.
