ADNOC LNG, a subsidiary of Abu Dhabi National Oil Co., has let a contract for the engineering, procurement, and construction of the second phase of its Integrated Gas Development Expansion (IGD-E) project to a consortium of Spain’s Tecnicas Reunidas and Abu Dhabi’s Target Engineering Construction Co.
IGD-E Phase 2 will take 54 months to complete and add 245 MMcfd of associated gas to the 1.4 bcfd of offshore natural gas sent from Das Island to ADNOC Gas Processing’s Habshan plant for treatment before end-use in electric power generation.
The EPC agreement encompasses engineering, equipment and material supply, construction, installation, testing and commissioning of compression, drying, and gas treatment units, and electric power generation and other auxiliary services. It includes the construction and commissioning of 60-MMcfd booster compression train at Das Island, as well as two 123-MMcfd feed-gas compression and dehydration trains and two 80-MMcfd amine-based fuel-gas treatment units.
Tecnicas Reunidas will lead the consortium and conduct engineering and procurement, while Target leads construction and commissioning works on Das Island.
ADNOC began work on its integrated gas development in 2009 to transfer 1 bcfd of high-pressure gas from offshore Umm Shaif field, via Das Island, to onshore sites at Habshan and Ruwais. The program was completed in 2013. IGD-E Phase 1 work began in 2015 and finished in August, adding 400 MMcfd of transportation capacity via a 117-km offshore and 114-km onshore pipeline and modifications to the Habshan gas processing complex.
The IGD-E Phase 2 EPC contract is valued at $860 million.
