“ADMA is preparing itself to have to provide power to some of their future large projects,” he said.
O’Meara said that key projects such as the gas production facility (GPF) in the Zakum field in addition to the Umm Shaif injection facilities (USGIF) where it is helping to develop ADMA’s electrical power network are important to both Cegelec and ADMA.
