Petrofac, a leading international service provider to the energy industry, has been selected by ADNOC Gas to undertake an Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management Services (EPCM) contract for a US$1.2 billion project to expand its gas production facilities on Das Island.
As part of the overall Rich Gas Development (RGD) Programme, Petrofac will provide EPCM services and oversee procurement and construction contracts to build a new inlet facility, two new gas dehydration and compression trains, each with a capacity of 420 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD), and associated infrastructure. Petrofac will also upgrade existing facilities to increase the site’s capacity for collecting and transporting raw natural gas. These upgrades will significantly increase gas processing capacity to meet rising customer demand.
Petrofac's Group Chief Executive, Tareq Kawash, said:
“We are delighted to have been entrusted by ADNOC Gas, one of our longest-standing customers, to undertake this contract in our home market of the UAE. We look forward to working together to safely and sustainably increase the gas processing capacity at Das Island.”
Chief Operating Officer of Petrofac’s Engineering & Construction division, Elie Lahoud said:
“We are proud to support ADNOC Gas with the continued development of its major offshore asset. Through our long-standing partnership, we have demonstrated our commitment to predictable, high-quality delivery and look forward to contributing further to ADNOC’s support of the UAE’s energy goals.”
Located 160 kilometres north-west of mainland UAE, the Das Island facility has been operational since 1977, and is the third longest LNG operation still in production globally. With a liquefaction capacity of six million metric tons per annum (MMtpa), it remains a key component of the nation’s LNG export strategy.
