Consortium comprises Spain’s Technicas Reunidas and Abu Dhabi’s Target Engineering
ADNOC LNG, a subsidiary of the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), recently signed the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contract for the second phase of the Integrated Gas Development Expansion (IGD-E) project with a consortium of Spain’s Tecnicas Reunidas and Abu Dhabi’s Target Engineering Construction Company.
The contract is valued at AED 3.16 billion (US$ 860mn) of which around half will flow into the local economy through ADNOC’s focus on maximising in-country value.
The agreement, between ADNOC LNG and the Technicas Reunidas and Target Engineering Construction Company joint venture, was signed by Fatema Mohamed Al Nuaimi, Acting CEO of ADNOC LNG; Arthur Crossley Sanz, General Manager of Tecnicas Reunidas and Chaouci Yassine, CEO, Target Engineering Construction Company.
“This agreement will enable us to deliver greater efficiency and performance, enhance the value of our gas assets and pursue our strategic objective to ensure a sustainable and economic gas supply that meets Abu Dhabi’s growing energy needs,” commented Al Nuaimi.
The second phase of the IGD-E project will take 54 months to complete. It will add 245 million cubic feet per day of associated gas to the 1.4 billion cubic feet per day of offshore gas sent from Das Island to ADNOC Gas Processing’s Habshan gas facilities to be processed for use in power generation.
The full scope of the contract encompasses engineering, equipment and material supply, construction, installation, testing and commissioning of compression, drying and gas treatment units, as well as power generation and other auxiliary services.
It includes the construction and commissioning of new gas facilities on Das Island including construction of a new Booster Compression Train with a capacity of 60mn cubic feet per day, as well as two Feed Gas Compression and Dehydration Trains, each having a capacity of 123mn cubic feet per day and two amine-based Fuel Gas Treatment Units with 80mn cubic feet per day capacity each.
Tecnicas Reunidas will lead the consortium and carry out the engineering and procurement for the project, while Target Engineering Construction Company will lead the construction and commissioning works on Das Island.
