Shah Gas Expansion Field

This project involves expansion of the Shah gas field in Abu Dhabi. Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC)
contract for the expansion of a Gas field to increase production capacity to 1.5 billion cubic feet a day (cf/d) from 1 billion
cf/d of sour gas. It is being implemented by Al-Hosn Gas, which is a joint venture between Abu Dhabi National Oil
Company (ADNOC) and US-based Occidental Petroleum. ADNOC holds a 60% stake in Al-Hosn Gas, with Occidental
owning the remaining 40%. New units will be engineered to expand the plant's processing capacity along with all associated
off-sites and utilities necessary to integrate the new units with existing installations, including gas gathering facilities, main
gas plant, product pipelines and the sulphur granulation plant. The additional pipeline will carry the liquid Sulphur from the
main processing plant to the granulation Sulphur plant located 11 kilometers away, where the Sulphur is granulated,
stockpiled, and ultimately transported, via rail, to a Sulphur handling terminal at ADNOCÂ’s Ruwais Downstream hub. The
pipeline, which will cater for future Sulphur production expansion, create greater value from a main commodity of sour gas
processing and increase flexibility around existing operations, is scheduled to be commissioned in 2019. The design study is
expected to be completed by fourth quarter of 2017 and will provide the information needed for the final investment
decision.
