SAIPEM
TODAY
SAIPEM TODAY IS A WORLD LEADER IN THE GLOBAL SUPPLY OF
ENGINEERING, PROCUREMENT, PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND
CONSTRUCTION SERVICES WITH DISTINCTIVE CAPABILITIES IN THE
DESIGN AND EXECUTION OF LARGE-SCALE OFFSHORE AND ONSHORE
PROJECTS.

Saipem has a strong bias towards oil
& gas frontiers, namely activities in
harsh and remote areas, in deep
waters as well as in extremely cold
and hot environments, applying
significant technological competences
in many diverse fields such as gas
monetization and heavy oil
exploitation.
Saipem, 43% owned by Eni, is
organized in three Business Units:
Offshore, Onshore and Drilling.

SAIPEM
ONSHORE
FOLLOWING THE ACQUISITION OF SEVERAL ENGINEERING
COMPANIES OVER THE LAST YEARS, MOST PROMINENTLY OF
SNAMPROGETTI, BOUYGUES OFFSHORE AND SOFRESID, SAIPEM HAS
BECOME ONE OF THE WORLD’S LARGEST AND MOST COMPLETE
ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES IN THE GLOBAL OIL
& GAS MARKETS ONSHORE.
6

Saipem Onshore offers a complete
range of project definition and
execution services, particularly for the
“mega-projects” required by the
market today: from feasibility and
conceptual studies to complex
integrated solutions combining
design, engineering, procurement and
field construction.
The integration of our engineering
and project management centres in
several continents has been
completed recently, providing a
consistent design and robust
execution philosophy on all our
projects worldwide.
Through the involvement of our four
global engineering centres for
onshore projects in Milan and Fano
(Italy), Paris (France) and Chennai
(India), which operate in connection
with a growing number of medium
size and smaller engineering centres,
employing altogether over 7,000
engineers, Saipem balances high
project execution quality with a
competitive cost and – most
importantly – with a major emphasis
on local know-how and content.
Saipem today operates in virtually
every world market, often in remote
locations with harsh environmental
conditions and challenging logistics,
leveraging on its proven experience
across the most significant product
lines in the oil & gas upstream,
midstream, refining, chemicals, power
generation, environmental industries
and infrastructure.
This new series, therefore, outlines
Saipem integrated references in
onshore markets, according to
individual business and technology
lines.

AMMONIA-UREA
AND SYNGAS-BASED PRODUCTS
THE INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION OF
SYNGAS-BASED CHEMICAL
PROCESSES HAS BEEN ONE OF THE
STALWARTS OF SNAMPROGETTI,
RECENTLY INTEGRATED INTO SAIPEM,
ALMOST SINCE ITS EARLIEST DAYS
MANY DECADES AGO.
We have designed and built hundreds
of plants, including more than twenty
fully integrated complexes, in every
remote corner of the world, mostly
based on the world leading and
proprietary licensed Snamprogetti TM
Urea Technology as well as on third
party syngas generation, ammonia
and methanol synthesis technologies.
In the Ammonia-Urea process
sequence, Saipem is a recognized
world leader:
8
Over 110 Urea Technology licensed
plants in operation.
In the quest for the economies of
scale, design and construction of
the largest single train urea unit in
operation today (Profertil, Bahia
Blanca Fertilizer Complex in
Argentina), which achieved an
average yearly production of 3,558
Tons per Day (T/D) in 2006 and has
become the reference for the
subsequent design and
construction of today’s biggest
single train urea plants, like the
Daharki Ammonia-Urea Complex
for Engro in Pakistan and the Qafco
5 Fertilizer Complex in Qatar with
the capacity of 3,835 T/D and
3,850 T/D respectively.
Design and construction in 2002-
2005 of the largest ammonia-urea
single project, namely Omifco in
Oman, with the total urea design
capacity of 5,060 T/D; in 2008 the
plant achieved the capacity peak of
6,000 T/D.
Continuous Urea Technology
improvements and upgrading.
To name just a few most recent
achievements:
- the new Omegabond TM Advanced
Tubing Technology (Ti/Zr
metallurgically coextruded) for
improved stripper performance
developed in collaboration with
ATI WahChang;
- focus on plant reliability and
availability concepts applied on
the 5,000+ T/D single train;
- the adoption of continuously
improved environmental impact
reduction and energy saving
schemes.
Moron Fertilizer Complex - Venezuela 1972

In addition to a large number of
integrated ammonia-urea complexes
based on natural gas and light
naphthas as feedstocks, in 2002
Saipem has placed on stream in
Nanjing, P.R. China, a complex
utilizing coal-like Eureka pitch as
feedstock. This feedstock is gasified
by means of a GE (former Texaco)
gasification technology to produce
syngas, subsequently converted into
1,000 T/D of ammonia and 1,700 T/D
of urea.
Our project reference list has been
enriched with the award a few
years ago of the multibillion
Gas-to-Liquids project in Escravos,
Nigeria from Chevron Nigeria Ltd.
The goal of this new investment is the
conversion of natural gas into 33,000
BPSD of top quality middle distillates
for transportation fuels via the new
process technology licensed by Sasol.
The first steps in the process
sequence, namely the syngas
production, are based on a
technology which is very similar to the
one applied in large scale ammonia
and methanol synthesis.
Among other technological novelties,
this project will see one of the first
applications on a very large scale of
Haldor Topsøe’s ATR – Auto Thermal
Reformer – process technology. With
a capacity of 560,000 Nm 3 /h of each
of the two ATRs, this will be one of
the largest syngas production units in
the world.
Saipem has been traditionally a
leading player in the design and
execution of Methanol Synthesis
plants, based on different process
technologies, with the more recent
focus on Haldor Topsøe’s – e.g.
the 3,000 T/D Bandar Imam plant in
Iran – a world class plant at the time
of its start-up in 2004 and, more
recently, the Front End Design of the
10,000 T/D VIVA Methanol Project in
Nigeria. This last one could become
the largest methanol synthesis and
syngas generation plant ever built.

ESCRAVOS GAS-TO-LIQUIDS PROJECT - NIGERIA
In addition to being one of the first applications of the Gas-to-Liquids technology on a world-class scale
(process technologies by Sasol, Chevron, Haldor Topsøe and others), the design and construction of this
complex had several elements of originality, such as the harsh and remote site environment.
In order to simplify local construction on the site in Escravos, Nigeria, many plant sections were designed
and built in an U.A.E. fabrication yard as modules, then shipped to the site.
• Modularization design: the biggest Saipem modularized plant of all times (pipe rack modules of over
1,000 tons each, process modules of over 2,000 tons each)
• Erection - Reactors Size: World Class Record 2008

At the time of the start-up in 2005, the Omifco Fertilizer Complex was the largest ammonia-urea project in
the world, supplying granular urea. The plant was implemented under limited recourse of project financing,
including the involvement of Italian and French ECA.
The project was built quickly and started up smoothly:
• First gas into the ammonia plant 32 months after project financial closure,
35 months after EPC contract signature
• First production in 18 days and 1 day for ammonia-urea train one; 12 days and 1 day for train two

WITH THE OBJECTIVE OF IMPROVING THE ECONOMICS AND
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF PLANTS BUILT EARLIER MOSTLY ON
SNAMPROGETTI TM UREA TECHNOLOGY, SAIPEM HAS INTRODUCED
SEVERAL NEW SOLUTIONS IN ORDER TO EXPAND THEIR PRODUCTION
CAPACITY, MODERNIZE THEIR HARDWARE AND ENHANCE THEIR
OPERABILITY AND RELIABILITY.
Main revamp undertakings:
44
Updated process scheme
Energy optimization
Improvement of product quality
Reduction of emissions
Improved metallurgy
Saipem has developed a successful
revamp methodology to meet client’s
expectations:
Continuous assistance during the
development of the project and the
lifetime of the plant.
Identification of client’s needs
through feasibility studies.
Definition of the appropriate and
economically viable revamp process
scheme.
Development of a process design
package and supply of the relevant
services (licensor technical
assistance during detailed
engineering, commissioning and
start-up) to allow an effective
implementation.
Based on this approach, almost
twenty revamps have been
implemented during the last few
years, mainly in India, Pakistan and
P.R. China, resulting in a typical
capacity increase between 30 and
70%, as well as in a significant
reduction in energy consumption.
