Amara Combined Cycle Power Plant

Our contribution to the Amara Power Generation Plant represented a key milestone in supporting Iraq’s growing energy demand. The project was designed to deliver a total capacity of 250 MW and involved comprehensive EPC activities, beginning with detailed engineering and technical planning and extending through procurement, construction, installation, and system integration. The scope covered the implementation of critical plant systems, including advanced fire protection solutions, extensive piping networks, storage tank installations, water treatment systems, and complete HVAC works to ensure operational efficiency and safety.

In addition, the project included major mechanical and civil works such as the construction of the Steam Turbine Hall (STH), installation of primary water and gas transmission pipelines, and the erection of pipe racks supporting complex process systems. Significant civil infrastructure upgrades were executed, including drainage networks, sewage systems, and stormwater management facilities, all designed to meet operational reliability and environmental requirements. Through careful coordination, quality control, and adherence to safety standards, the project contributes to strengthening regional power stability, enabling industrial growth, creating employment opportunities, and supporting long-term economic development across

FAQs

Find clear and concise answers about our services, project execution, and how we deliver reliable engineering solutions.

01.
What distinguishes EDK from other EPC companies operating in Iraq?

EDK, is distinguished by its ability to deliver fully integrated turnkey EPC solutions rather than isolated construction services. The company’s approach covers the entire project lifecycle, starting from engineering studies and detailed design, through procurement and execution, and extending to commissioning and post-completion support. With experience dating back to 2004 and a proven track record across both public and private sectors, EDK combines local market knowledge with international standards. Its long-standing partnerships with Iraqi ministries and global industry leaders such as Siemens and PetroChina further reinforce its position as a trusted partner for complex and high-impact

02.
In which sectors does the company have proven hands-on experience rather than theoretical capability?

The company possesses extensive, field-proven experience across several critical sectors that form the backbone of Iraq’s economic development. These include oil and gas projects such as gas compression facilities, transmission pipelines, and processing units; power generation projects including combined cycle, steam, and large-scale power stations; industrial infrastructure works encompassing civil, mechanical, and electrical systems; and community development buildings such as universities and essential service facilities. These capabilities are supported by executed and operational projects, demonstrating practical expertise rather than conceptual planning.

03.
How does the company ensure execution quality in large-scale, long-term projects?

Execution quality is ensured through a structured and disciplined project management framework that integrates cost control, procurement management, and technical supervision at every stage. The company relies on experienced engineering teams, strict quality assurance procedures, and continuous on-site monitoring to maintain consistency and precision throughout project execution. By embedding quality control into daily operations and decision-making processes, EDK ensures that large-scale projects are delivered in accordance with contractual requirements, international standards, and long-term operational reliability.

04.
What is the company’s approach to health, safety, and environmental (HSE) management?

Health, safety, and environmental responsibility are core pillars of the company’s operational philosophy, particularly in high-risk industrial and energy projects. EDK applies a zero-incident approach supported by proactive safety planning, continuous workforce training, strict supervision, and regular inspections. Environmental protection and safety compliance are treated as integral components of project execution rather than regulatory obligations, ensuring safe working environments, risk mitigation, and responsible project delivery.

05.
Does the company have the capability to execute national or sovereign-level projects?

The company has consistently demonstrated its ability to contribute to projects of national significance that directly impact Iraq’s energy security and infrastructure development. Its involvement in major power generation projects such as the Maisan Combined Cycle Power Plant, the Amarah Combined Cycle Power Plant, and the Karbala Electricity Station, as well as strategic oil and gas infrastructure projects, reflects its capacity to manage complex, large-scale initiatives. These projects require high technical competence, coordination with government entities, and long-term operational vision, all of which the company has proven capable of delivering.
