QatarEnergy has awarded Technip Energies an engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contract worth US$10 billion for constructing the onshore infrastructure of the North Field South (NFS) project in Qatar.
The award covers construction and delivery of two mega trains, each with the capacity of 8 million tonnes/year (tpy) of liquefied natural gas (LNG), along with associated infrastructure for gas treatment, natural gas liquids recovery, helium extraction, and refining in the Ras Laffan Industrial City. Technip Energies will provide its expertise in the areas of design, procurement, and construction for this project.
Upon completion, the NFS project, coupled with the North Field East (NFE) project, will increase Qatar's LNG production capacity to 125 million tonnes per year from the current capacity of 77 million tonnes per year. QatarEnergy holds a 75% stake in the NFS project and has collaborated with TotalEnergies, Shell, and ConocoPhillips for the remaining 25%.
