The Significance of the ADNOC’s Natural Gas Deal
The significance of ADNOC’s gas deal with EWEC is expected to bring monumental changes in driving sustainable economic growth. Gas-fired power plants provide important transitional capacity. This enables for continued integration of large-scale renewable and clean energy. The flexible natural gas supply will be delivered to plants across Abu Dhabi and the UAE. Moreover, it will solidify the companies’ shared commitment to ensure sustainable economic growth. The commitment of ADNOC Gas and EWEC is noticeable, as ADNOC recently awarded three contracts for the Ruwais LNG plant.
Valued at around $2.1 billion, the contracts entail an LNG preconditioning plant, compression facilities, and transmission pipelines. Once completed, the Ruwais LNG will more than double ADNOC’s current LNG capacity. It also highlights the nation’s commitment to sustainability as it will run on clean power. Through this, it will be the first LNG export facility in the Arab world to do so. The natural gas deal with EWEC solidifies these ambitions, ensuring ADNOC Gas is able to meet its targets.
