ADNOC has awarded a $3.6 billion (AED13.1 billion) contract to expand its gas processing infrastructure in the UAE.
The contract was given to a joint venture between National Petroleum Construction Company of Abu Dhabi and and Tecnicas Reunidas from Spain.
New gas processing facilities will be commissioned to enable an optimised supply to the Ruwais Industrial Complex, with two main objectives. Firstly, ethane extraction from ADNOC's existing onshore facilities will be increased by 35-40 per cent, and secondly, further value will be extracted from existing raw material to be delivered via a dedicated 120 km pipeline.
Over 70 per cent of the award value will flow back into the UAE’s economy under ADNOC's successful In-Country Value programme, supporting local economic growth and diversification.
The plan includes new approaches and technologies to enable increased gas recovery from existing fields and further develop untapped resources.
