The signing ceremony
Saudi Aramco awarded today, April 2, engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contracts worth $7.7 billion for a major expansion of its Fadhili Gas Plant in the Eastern Province.
The project is expected to increase the plant’s processing capacity from 2.5 to up to 4 billion standard cubic feet per day (bscfd), Aramco said in an emailed statement to Argaam.
This additional 1.5 bscfd of processing capacity is expected to contribute to the company’s strategy to raise gas production by more than 60% by 2030, compared to 2021 levels.
The Fadhili Gas Plant expansion is expected to add an additional 2,300 metric tons per day to sulphur production, and to be completed by November 2027,
The EPC contracts for the Fadhili Gas Plant increment project were awarded to SAMSUNG Engineering Company, GS Engineering & Construction Corporation, and Nesma & Partners.
The expansion supports Aramco’s ambitions to develop a lower-carbon hydrogen business, while associated liquids from gas are an important feedstock for the petrochemical industry.
