About Aurasyia

AURASYIA SCOP GROUP OIL & GAS UK LTD. was established and registered in the UK at the height of the need for more energy, and at the peak of Iraq’s wake to restore its Oil Export capacity in 2015.

AURASYIA’s shareholders are seasoned business savvy individuals who have accumulated knowledge and experience through 40 years of working for domestic and international reputable companies in the sectors of Oil & Gas such as Exxon Mobile, Eni, Shell, and BP as well as General Contracting Companies such as FLUOR, Weston Solutions, Bechtel, F.A. Kettaneh/Skanska, Future Enterprises Ltd., and AISG (All listed companies have worked and invested in Iraq and still are).

Our aim is to invest in developing energy projects such as the Basra Oil Tank Farm & Loading Terminals Project – which is an original idea incepted and unprecedented in Iraq – by AURASYIA as it is the most lucrative sector in Iraq today.

The years of preparation, studies, negotiations, and pursuing the approval for such a project let alone the crisis of the Covid-19 pandemic – when the entire world came to almost a complete shutdown and the demand for oil was at its lowest point which created a worldwide Oil storage crisis and caused Oil producing nations to reduce their production.
All together with the experience and reputation of our associates and partners – especially AVIC International Beijing Co., ZNH (HK) INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT Co. Limited, METALIX, and Hanna Al-Sheikh Group of Companies- AURASYIA constitutes a sound platform for business and development investments projects.

A word from AURASYIA CEO

AURASYIA and Associates will not spare any effort or resources to present Iraq with a World Class Facility Built to BOC Specifications & Needs.

Greetings!

It is my pleasure to present to you the Basra Oil Tank Farm & Offshore Loading Island and Terminals Project, a one-of-a-kind project to be built on a BOTT basis by the private sector represented by AURASIYA SCOP GROUP OIL & GAS UK Limited and AVIC International Beijing Co. in collaboration and coordination with the Iraqi Ministry of Oil and the Basra Oil Company.  

The need for oil has increased dramatically since it was first discovered as well as the need to store it, especially during the world’s last pandemic which forced oil-producing countries to slow production and store oil because of decreased demand thus increasing the strategic need for more oil storage facilities. This project, since its inception in 2015, found the full support of the South Oil Company General Director (then) Mr. Hayyan ABdulGhani, now His Excellency the Iraqi Minister of Oil. 

AURASIYA, with its unwavering determination and effort, is very pleased to put between your hands:  The Basra Crude Oil Tank Farm & Offshore Loading Island and Terminals project.  A project fully financed and built by the private sector under the approval and standards of BOC, represented by its General Director the Honorable Mr. Bassem Abdulkareem.

AURASIYA joined with AVIC International Beijing China Co. to secure the proper finances for the project and the original agreement that was signed in 2019  was re-confirmed in February 2023.  

We are excited about our meeting and are full of hope the Project gets your approval and satisfaction.

Thank you and best regards.
