The plant, located 50 km north of Abu Dhabi city, will utilide up to 450 million ft3/d of sales gas. The gas will be delivered to the facility by ADNOC Gas Processing’s recently installed Maqta-Taweelah pipeline.
The inauguration of the Taweelah Gas Compression Plant comes less than a month after Abu Dhabi’s Supreme Petroleum Council approved ADNOC’s new integrated gas strategy, which will enable the UAE to achieve gas self-sufficiency, with the aim of potentially transitioning to a net gas exporter.
The Taweelah Gas Compression Plant comprises three compression trains, each with a processing capacity of 225 million ft3/d. At any one time, two of the compression trains will be operational, with the third on standby.
