The North Field East (NFE) project is an expansion of the North Field, the world’s biggest single non-associated natural gas field, offshore north-east Qatar peninsula.Formerly known as the North field expansion project, the NFE project is expected to increase Qatar’s liquefied natural gas (LNG) production capacity by 43% from 77 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) to 110Mtpa.First gas from the $28.75bn project is expected to be produced by 2025. Total production is expected to be 1.4 million barrels of oil equivalent a day.The project is in line with Qatar’s National Vision 2030, which aims for more sustainable development by 2030.
The EPC-4 project consists of the construction of new sulfur-handling, storage and loading facilities to process and export sulfur from the existing expansion of the liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant at Ras Laffan Industrial City (RLIC). The new sulfur plant will process an average of 5,000 tons of molten sulfur per day.
The contract will also include an option for further expansion to support sulfur production for the two additional LNG trains of the North Field South (NFS) project, and infrastructure to support future additional LNG trains.
The project includes the connection of the new facilities to the existing sulfur gathering system, as well as new granulators, solid sulfur storage capacity, sulfur handling equipment, and a new ship loading system.
The following is a list of the scope of work will be executed by IRIS Construction, who will be responsible for all civil works. Also IRIS Construction will be responsible of turnkey construction of total 6,250 m² 8 substations and control buildings including engineering.
