For your business needs

Our staff can review your design needs based on your conceptual requirements, your ini al Front End Engineering and Design (FEED) work, or other preliminary infor-ma on.

From your inputs we will tailor a design package that suits your requirements.

Our staff can offer complete Architectural and Engineering (A&E) services where re-quired. These services are generally offered in connec on with design-build projects.

We offer these services with both in-house staff as well as retained A&E consultants on a case by case basis.

If you require onsite assistance in Iraq pertaining to architectural, engineering, or relat-ed construc on management services, we have staff to support your needs. Our staff have the required exper se to provide a full range of onsite services and we can offer both Iraqi Na onal Staff as well as Foreign Na onal Staff.

RIDLEY & PARTNERS, INC. is licensed under Cer fi-

cate of Authoriza on (COA) number 5137-E to pro-

vide engineering services to the public in The State

of Alabama.

In addi on to this our staff has provided engineer-

ing services on numerous design-build projects

throughout Iraq. These services have been provid-

ed to various en es associated with the US Gov-

ernment as well as to mul ple Interna onal Oil &

Gas Companies (IOCs).

Where required our staff has also rou nely part-

nered with local Iraq based geotechnical and sur-

veying firms to complete preliminary field work as

well as ongoing project related quality control (QC)

and quality assurance (QA) requirements.

In addi on to this and where required to comply

with local ordinances our staff has partnered with

local universi es as well as third (3rd) party A&E

firms to review and cer fy our design work.

We prefer u lizing the following so ware as a part

Circa 2009 the Interna onal Oil & Gas Community begun their remobiliza on efforts in Southern, Iraq.

Most western companies were encouraged by their security consultants to provide facili es planned for

larger concentrated occupancies with some means to provide resistance to rocket propelled muni ons.

A majority of western companies specified the use of the system u lized by The US Department of State

(DoS) throughout Iraq. However, this system relied upon the u liza on of E-Glass protec ve panels which

at the me were an export controlled item of US origin.

As a solu on to this problem our staff developed a pre-engineered metal building (PEB) concept which

u lized a welded mesh grate roof for a pre-detona on layer and a reinforced concrete roof deck for a

detona on layer. This design was analyzed u lizing a specialized ballis c Finite Element Analysis (FEA)

so ware package and was constructed u lizing locally and regionally procured goods. The system was so

effec ve that it was u lized by Schlumberger (1st-Genera on), Exxon-Mobile (2nd-Genera on), as well as

Shell (3rd-Genera on) in their Southern, Iraq base camp facili es.

For your business needs

Our staff’s core capabili es are associated with self-contained campus style building facility projects. Regardless of the loca on or the size we can execute this style of project on an interna onal basis at any general loca-

on in Iraq and to what ever quality or speci-fica on level that may be required.

As a result of our core capabili es, our staff is fully conversant on a design-build basis with all manner of u lity infrastructure systems.

Electrical—Our staff has worked on diesel fired power plants in the range of 15 mva with all required distribu on and systems.

As a result of our core capabili es, our staff is fully conversant on a design-build basis with all manner of Internet, Communica ons, Telecom-munica ons, Security, and Entertainment systems. We have been involved with highly complex building-facility requirements, including such technologies as u lizing microwave antennas to provide converged network support to building facili es that were remotely located from the core project. Through our system integrator partners we can provide any level of ICT support in Iraq. This service can include advanced securi-ty systems as well as connec vity and integra on with global corporate access control systems.

RIDLEY & PARTNERS, INC. has a full office and field

staff in Iraq. Our staff has been engaged almost

con nually with design-build building facility pro-

jects as well as heavy civil construc on projects

since 2005. Their exper se has generally been

gained in the fixed-price self-performed design-

build building facility environment. Their ini al

experience was gained working for various US Gov-

ernmental en es and their la er experience was

gained working for various Interna onal Oil & Gas

Companies (IOC), Oil Service Firms, as well as Inter-

na onal Engineering, Procurement, and Construc-

on (EPC) firms. Our staff has been exposed to an

excess of one (1) billion US dollars of design build

projects in Iraq.

In rela on to site civil or building facility projects

our staff can work from client design packages or

we can fully execute design-build projects to all

applicable local and interna onal standards. This

includes being fully conversant with mul ple IOC

design and construc on standards and specifica-

ons.

While RIDLEY & PARTNERS is a rela vely new corporate en ty, our principals as well as our key personnel

have extensive experience opera ng in Iraq. This experience has generally been acquired on a vast array

of design-build projects beginning circa 2005 and con nuing today.

Ini ally our staff executed small design build construc on projects generally associated with greenfield

Iraq Army Brigade Level sites. These projects were generally executed on behalf of USA based Prime Con-

tactors. As the market sector changed and USA based Contractors begun to demobilize from Iraq, our

staff begun execu ng the same style of projects as a Prime Contractor.

As a result of the USA GOV drawdown and the mobiliza on of the Interna onal Oil & Gas community, our

staff was engaged in the construc on of greenfield base construc on projects. Once the ini al mobiliza-

on was completed our staff’s work transi oned into heavy civil process based greenfield construc on.

These la er ac vi es have generally been performed for larger interna onal EPC Prime Contractors; but,

in some cases on a design-build basis.

SAMPLE CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS

Circa 2012 to 2013 27 million USD Single concrete pours up to 2,200 CM 7,000 pre-cast concrete piles installed 300 man work crew for pile and concrete work Greenfield construc on

UPPER—As a result of in-situ soil condi ons all heavy structures and par cularly all bulk tank foun-da ons rested on driven concrete piles. As a part of the projects local content plan and socio-economic plan, local area laborers were hired to manually cut the pile tops in prepara on for con nued founda-

on works.

MIDDLE—The largest bulk storage tanks in the facility had diameters of thirty-five (35) meters and also relied on pile founda ons.

BOTTOM RIGHT—The largest bulk storage tanks required con nuous thirty-six (36) hour pour mes and required up to 2,200 CM of concrete.

BOTTOM LEFT—Local area labor manually cu ng pile in prepara on for con nued founda on work. Over 7,000 pre-cast concrete piles were installed and prepared for con nued founda ons work.

The West Qurna Central Processing Facility (CPF) is lo-cated, in Southern Iraq, in the West Qurna Oilfield. For this project our staff ini ally performed the Phase 1 scope of work, which consisted of site grading, perime-ter fencing, and security infrastructure.

Following comple on of Phase 1 or staff worked on Phase 2 which consisted of finalizing site work, installing founda ons, concrete tanks and u li es.

U li es constructed in this phase consisted of water-lines, electrical duct banks, and storm water manage-ment infrastructure.

Founda ons were constructed for all primary equip-ment. All founda ons were supported by pre-cast con-crete piles. Over 7,000 piles were installed and cut to the design eleva on.

A total of fi een (15) circular tanks were constructed, with dimeters ranging from 7.2 M to 33 M. For the larg-er tanks, up to 2,200 CM of concrete was used for the bo om slab and placed in a con nuous pours generally las ng up to thirty-six (36) hours.

Founda ons for the pipe racks had to be precisely placed as the pipe racks were pre-assembled on the ground while the founda ons were being installed. A er founda on work was completed, the pipe racks were moved into place and set as single assemblies.

Over 300 workers were mobilized for the founda on and pile cu ng work.

BOTTOM LEFT—Our staff completed all internal road asphalt pavement in the CPF as well as all concrete road crossings.

The Badra Oil Field project Central Processing Facility Phase I (CPF) was constructed in the Badra oilfield situ-ated in Wasit governorate, approximately 160 km southeast of Baghdad, Iraq.

For this project our staff performed the Early Civil Works, which consisted of site grading, perimeter fenc-ing and security infrastructure. This work was per-formed on a design-build basis and specifically our staff completed the ini al grading design and grading for the CPF facility.

A er the Early Civil Works phase was completed the Phase I por on of the project was begun. For this phase our staff performed site excava ons for founda ons and u li es, concrete work for pipe supports, equipment and tanks as well as blast pressure resistant reinforced concrete buildings constructed for the CPF substa ons, control center, and various support facili es.

Containment dykes were constructed for bulk oil tanks, which incorporated HDPE liners.

All concrete was prepared with on-site batch plants and all reinforcing was fabricated on-site.

U lity installa ons included water, wastewater, pre-cast and cast in place electrical duct work and manholes. A site wide stormwater system was constructed as well as storrmwater reten on ponds.

Sleepers to support transmission pipe were pre-cast on-site u lizing fabricated formwork, and then installed at loca ons as shown on plans.

All roadways were paved or received gravel surfacing with concrete road crossings.

Cast in place piles were installed to support larger struc-tures.
