Contracting giants line up for ADNOC’s Ruwais LNG megaproject

Contractors have submitted technical bids to ADNOC Gas for its 9.6 mtpa LNG export terminal to be built in Ruwais.

The two consortiums are Technip Energies/JGC Corp/National Petroleum Construction Co and McDermott/Saipem/Hyundai Engineering and Construction.

The contract, which includes process facilities, flares and utilities, LNG storage tanks, an export jetty with bunkering, and other associated facilities, will be awarded later this year.

Through its planned LNG growth project, ADNOC intends to more than double its LNG production capacity to meet increased global demand for natural gas. The plant, which is designed with electric-powered processing facilities, will run on renewable and nuclear grid power making it one of the lowest carbon intensity LNG facilities in the world. 

Last month, ADNOC announced a change in project location from Al Ruwais Industrial City instead to Fujairah. The location’s vicinity to ADNOC’s current operations and its future growth projects as well as its local supplier base were all important factors in the decision, ADNOC said at the time of the announcement.
