RoydadNaft – <\/a><\/span>\u00a0ADNOC has taken final investment decisions (FIDs) and handed out $8.2 billion in engineering, procurement and construction contracts for phases 2 and 3 of its Rich Gas Development (RGD) project, raising its targeted EBITDA growth to 60% by 2030 versus 2023, which is seen as an upgrade from the previously communicated target of more than 40% over 2023-2029.<\/p>\n

The company has awarded a $3.9 billion EPC deal for Phase 2 to Wison Engineering and a $4.3 billion EPC deal for Phase 3 to Tecnimont, building on Phase 1, announced in June 2025, which is expanding key processing units to increase throughput and improve operational efficiency across multiple gas assets.<\/p>\n

Phase 2 will add a new natural gas processing train at the Habshan facility, expanding ADNOC Gas\u2019 natural gas processing capacity, enhancing operational flexibility, and supporting the UAE\u2019s expanding downstream and petrochemical sectors.<\/p>\n

Phase 3 will add a new natural gas liquids (NGL) fractionation train at Ruwais, increasing the recovery of higher-value liquids from rich natural gas for export, strengthening the UAE player\u2019s global customer portfolio.<\/p>\n

Alongside the $5 billion committed to Phase 1 with major upgrades and expansion works across facilities in Habshan, Asab, Buhasa, and Das Island, the company claims that these new awards bring total investment in the RGD project to $13.2 billion.<\/p>\n

While the overall RGD program includes offshore touchpoints, specifically due to Phase 1, which encapsulates expansion and optimization works at the Das Island offshore liquefaction and processing facility, the core scope for phases 2 and 3 is strictly focused on onshore processing and fractionation infrastructure at Habshan and Ruwais.<\/p>\n

The project is expected to benefit from higher associated gas volumes as the firm progresses towards its production capacity ambitions, since ADNOC Gas expects to invest approximately $28 billion between 2026 and 2030 to deliver its growth ambition.<\/p>\n

Fatema Al Nuaimi, Chief Executive Officer of ADNOC Gas, commented: \u201cThis is a defining moment for ADNOC Gas. With the final investment decision and contract awards for the Rich gas development project, we are not only accelerating one of the world\u2019s largest gas-processing growth programs \u2013 we are raising our ambition, targeting 60% EBITDA growth by 2030.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese strategic investments will significantly expand our natural gas processing and export capacity, unlock lasting value for our shareholders, and position ADNOC Gas at the heart of the UAE\u2019s energy future. Beyond their economic impact, they safeguard the nation\u2019s energy security, power its industrial growth, and ensure we are ready to meet rising energy demand \u2013 at home and around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

ADNOC Gas is executing four megaprojects \u2013 Ruwais LNG, Maximizing Ethane Recovery and Monetization (MERAM), RGD, and Estidama \u2013 which together are expected to generate $13.4 billion in in-country value (ICV), reinforcing the firm\u2019s contribution to the UAE\u2019s industrial development and economic diversification goals.<\/p>\n

The program continues to progress, with MERAM expected to be delivered in 2027 and Ruwais LNG and Estidama both advancing as planned, underpinned by ADNOC\u2019s continued investment across the gas value chain, including the recently announced Bab Gas Capand Umm Shaif Gas Cap developments.<\/p>\n

Tecnimont emphasized: \u201cThe scope of work includes engineering, procurement and construction activities for the fifth NGL fractionation unit, which will separate the various hydrocarbon components, together with treatment and sweetening systems designed to remove impurities and ensure product quality.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt also comprises the regeneration gas treatment unit, the propane refrigeration system, the ancillary systems and the storage facilities. Once completed in 2030, this plant will have an output capacity of 23,000 tonnes per day (t\/d), or about 8 million tonnes per year.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, ADNOC Gas is scaling artificial intelligence and robotics, from aerial drones and four-legged inspection robots to tank-climbing crawlers, across its assets, with the potential to cut inspection costs by up to 75%, complete certain inspections up to 15 times faster, and remove personnel from hazardous environments as it advances toward increasingly autonomous operations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ADNOC has taken final investment decisions (FIDs) and handed out $8.2 billion in engineering, procurement and construction contracts for phases 2 and 3 of its Rich Gas Development (RGD) project, raising its targeted EBITDA growth to 60% by 2030 versus 2023, which is seen as an upgrade from the previously communicated target of more than 40% over 2023-2029.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18012,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47,20,46,36,19,35],"tags":[],"services":[],"class_list":["post-18011","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-breaking-news","category-gas","category-international","category-lastnews","category-news","category-topnews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18011","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18011"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18011\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18013,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18011\/revisions\/18013"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18012"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18011"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18011"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18011"},{"taxonomy":"services","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/services?post=18011"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
