Contractors have submitted technical bids for an Adnoc Gas project that involves building a pipeline network that will supply feedstocks to chemicals manufacturers at the Taziz Industrial Chemicals Zone in Abu Dhabi’s Ruwais.

Adnoc Gas, the natural gas production and processing business of Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (Adnoc Group), intends to supply fuel gas, nitrogen and other gaseous streams as feedstock for planned chemicals plants in the Taziz derivatives complex.

In the early stage of development of the Taziz chemicals zone, Adnoc Gas planned to deliver 226,600 million British thermal units a day (MMBtu/d) of peak sales gas, and 138,000 normal cubic metres an hour (Nm3/hr) of nitrogen to Taziz consumers.

Taziz – a 60:40 joint venture of Adnoc and Abu Dhabi’s industrial holding company ADQ – later announced its intention to expand the chemicals production complex and launched a second expansion phase.

In light of these expansion projects, Adnoc Gas has decided to increase its feedstock supply to Taziz investors to 720,280 MMBtu/d of sales gas and 319,500 Nm3/hr of nitrogen.

Contractors invited to bid for the project submitted technical bids by the deadline of 8 September, sources told MEED.

MEED previously reported that Adnoc Gas had issued the expression of interest document for the new Taziz feedstock pipeline project by 8 May, with contractors submitting responses by 15 May.

Adnoc Gas then issued the main tender for engineering, procurement and construction works on the project on 28 June, according to sources.

The main objective of the project is to install a new 42-inch sales gas pipeline measuring 3.14 kilometres (km), and a 20-inch nitrogen pipeline covering 2.21km, along with associated facilities, from the existing Adnoc Gas pipeline network to the new customer receiving station near the Taziz Industrial Chemicals Zone.
