Adnoc awards Ruwais LNG gig to Technip Energies JV

UAE’s Adnoc has issued a limited notice to proceed for early engineering, procurement, and construction activities to a joint venture led by France’s Technip Energies for its planned LNG terminal in Al Ruwais.

The JV also includes Japan’s JGC and UAE’s National Petroleum Construction Company, according to Adnoc.

Adnoc said it expects to take a final investment decision on the project later this year, while early civil works at the site have already started.

When completed, the project, which consists of two 4.8 mtpa LNG liquefaction trains with a total capacity of 9.6 mtpa, will more than double Adnoc’s LNG production capacity.

Adnoc currently owns a 70 percent stake in Adnoc LNG, that currently produces about 6 mtpa of LNG from its facilities on Das Island.

Last year, Adnoc announced it will build its second LNG terminal in Al Ruwais. The firm previously planned to construct the facility in Fujairah.

Adnoc Gas, the gas and LNG unit of Adnoc, also awarded US energy services firm Baker Hughes a contract for the planned LNG export terminal.

In December 2023, Adnoc also signed the first Ruwais LNG supply agreement with a unit of Chinese independent gas distributor ENN.

Under the deal, ENN LNG (Singapore), a unit of ENN Natural Gas, will buy 1 mtpa of LNG for a period of 15 years.
