Technip Energies, leader of a joint venture with JGC and NMDC Energy, has been awarded a major contract by ADNOC for the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of the Ruwais low-carbon liquefied natural gas project, located in the Al Ruwais industrial zone, Abu Dhabi.

The project will consist of two natural gas liquefaction trains, with a total LNG production capacity of 9.6 Mtpa. The plant will use electric motors instead of conventional gas turbines, and will be powered by clean energy.

The plant is expected to be the first LNG export infrastructure in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region to run on clean energy, making it one of the lowest-carbon LNG plants in the world.

The project will more than double ADNOC's LNG production capacity, in line with global demand for natural gas and the need for decarbonization.

Arnaud Pieton, Chief Executive Officer of Technip Energies, said: ' By powering electrified LNG trains with nuclear energy, this project sets a new standard combining energy security and sustainability. By leveraging our leadership in low-carbon and electrified LNG, we will support ADNOC in its role as a global natural gas supplier and in its commitment to decarbonization. '
