Firms have expressed interest in the new EPC tendering round for the Hail & Ghasha onshore facilities project after agreements were canceled last month, according to data from DMS Projects. The list of participating contractors is yet to be announced.
ADNOC recently terminated two key contracts for onshore and offshore work on the Hail and Ghasha sour gas development, throwing the timing of the project into doubt.
However, ADNOC seems to be proceeding swiftly with the long-delayed project, which is among the largest oil and gas projects in the UAE in recent years and is a core part of Abu Dhabi’s drive to expand its gas production capacity by the end of this decade.
Hail and Ghasha is expected to provide feedstock for Abu Dhabi’s gas export plans— along with its ambition to emerge as a key hydrogen producer — add to 1.5 billion cubic feet per day of gas at its peak.
