Qatar Petroleum announced the awarding of a major engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contract for its North Field Expansion Project to Técnicas Reunidas S.A., a Madrid based contractor that provides EPC services to the energy industry.
The engineering, procurement and construction contract will expand the existing liquid products (condensate, propane and butane) storage and loading facilities and increase the import facilities for mono-ethylene glycol within Ras Laffan Industrial City, QP said in a statement Aug. 24.
The EPC contract will also build ancillary facilities and pipelines serving the North Field expansion project. QP didn't disclose the value of the contract.
The award of this contract is the culmination of front-end engineering and design (FEED) work that began in early 2018, and represents another important milestone to deliver on Qatar Petroleum’s commitment to significantly increase Qatar’s LNG production capacity.
When completed, the NFE project will increase Qatar’s LNG production capacity from 77 million tons per annum (MTPA) to 110 MTPA, while the NFS project will further increase Qatar’s LNG production capacity from 110 MTPA to 126 MTPA.
As part of the contract, Tecnicas Reunidas will perform the detailed engineering work in Qatar, leveraging the growing technical capabilities in the country for the development of major projects.
