Abu Dhabi National Oil Co. (ADNOC) has awarded McDermott International Ltd. a front-end engineering and design (FEED) contract for its planned 9.6-million tonne/year (tpy) LNG plant in Fujairah, UAE. The project will consist of two 4.8-million tpy trains.
FEED will be followed by award of an engineering, procurement, and construction contract in 2023.
ADNOC already produces 6 million tpy of LNG from a plant on Das Island off the coast of Abu Dhabi.
The company’s shipping and maritime logistics arm, ADNOC Logistics & Services, last month contracted with Jiangnan Shipyard in China for construction of two 175,000-cu m LNG vessels to join its fleet in 2025.
