由Technip Energies牵头、与JGC Corporation和National Petroleum Construction Company PJSC共同开展该项目的合资企业已获得早期设计、采购和施工 (EPC) 活动的有限进展通知 (LNTP) ，最终投资决策（最终投资决定）预计今年完成。

鲁韦斯液化天然气项目将成为中东和北非地区第一个使用清洁能源运行的液化天然气出口设施，使其成为世界上碳强度最低的液化天然气工厂之一，并与阿布扎比国家石油公司的脱碳承诺相结合、可持续性和创新。

竣工后，该项目将包括两条年产 480 万吨 (mmtpa) 的液化天然气生产线，总产能为 9.6mmtpa，将使 ADNOC 的液化天然气产能增加一倍以上，从 6mmtpa 增至约 15mmtpa。

ADNOC下游业务管理执行副总裁Fatema Al Nuaimi表示：“鲁韦斯液化天然气项目将巩固ADNOC作为可靠的全球天然气供应商的地位，凸显其对全球能源安全的关键作用和贡献。该项目将通过促进当地工业生态系统、吸引更多投资以及在阿尔鲁韦斯工业城创建重要的能源贸易门户，为阿尔达夫拉地区的经济做出重大贡献。”

A Limited Notice to Proceed (LNTP) for early engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) activities has been awarded to a joint venture led by Technip Energies, with JGC Corporation and National Petroleum Construction Company PJSC for the project, for which the Final Investment Decision (FID) is expected this year.

The Ruwais LNG project is set to be the first LNG export facility in the Middle East and North Africa region to run on clean power, making it one of the lowest carbon intensity LNG plants in the world and tying in with ADNOC’s commitment to decarbonisation, sustainability and innovation.

When completed, the project will consist of two 4.8 million metric tonnes per annum (mmtpa) LNG liquefaction trains with a total capacity of 9.6mmtpa and is set to more than double ADNOC’s LNG production capacity, from 6mmtpa to around 15mmtpa.

Fatema Al Nuaimi, executive vice president of downstream Business Management at ADNOC, said, “The Ruwais LNG project will reinforce ADNOC’s position as a reliable global natural gas supplier, underscoring its pivotal role and contribution to global energy security. The project is set to significantly contribute to the Al Dhafra region’s economy by boosting the local industrial ecosystem, attracting further investments and creating a vital energy trade gateway in Al Ruwais Industrial City.”
