GAC Oman’s Post

🇴🇲 ➡️ Oman’s new LNG bunkering project to be fully solar-powered Marsa LNG - a partnership of French-based energy giant TotalEnergies (80%) and Almuzn LNG LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Omani integrated energy group OQ (20%) - is developing the 1 million tonne capacity LNG project to serve primarily as a bunkering and export terminal. For want of suitable land in the vicinity of the project, the solar farm is proposed to be established elsewhere within Oman and with enough capacity to meet the energy needs of the LNG plant nearly twice over. This output will be fed into the national grid, which in turn will power the LNG plant through a ‘power wheeling arrangement’ with grid operator, the Oman Electricity Transmission Company (OETC). #LNG #TotalEnergies #MarsaLNG #LNGbunkering

Technip Energies To Construct Solar-Powered LNG Plant For TotalEnergies And OQ In Oman Technip Energies, a global leader in energy transition solutions, has secured a significant contract from TotalEnergies and OQ for the Marsa LNG bunkering project situated in Sohar, Oman. The contract encompasses Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) services for a natural gas liquefaction train with a remarkable LNG production capacity of 1 million tons per annum (Mtpa). Notably, the plant will adopt electric-driven motors instead of conventional gas turbines and will be fueled by renewable electricity sourced from a nearby solar farm, effectively covering 100% of the LNG plant’s annual power requirements. This innovative approach positions the site as one of […] Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/dxrpTeux #solarenergy #alternativeenergy #solarpv #pvsolar #photovoltaic #cleanenergy #cleantech #climatechange #middleeast #africa #india #asiapacific #asia #energytransition #middleeast #oman #oq #renewableenergy #solarenergy #techniqenergies #totalenergies

https://lnkd.in/dy9UKZ2r #trending #viral #icorppro #oman #jeddah #investment #billion #project #LNG #GCC OQ Group, Final Investment Decision to Build $1.6 Billion LNG Bunkering Plant in Oman. OQ Group and TotalEnergies have announced the final investment decision to construct the Marsa LNG Bunkering project at Sohar Port in Oman. The project will cost around $1.6 billion, with TotalEnergies contributing 80% and OQ contributing 20%. The project aims to combine upstream and downstream business segments. However, the upstream component produces 150 million cubic feet per day of gas from Block 10. Moreover, it will subsequently be transported through OQGN’s gas network to Sohar Port. The downstream component involves the construction of an LNG plant with a capacity of 1 million tons per year. Also, a renewable energy power plant with a capacity of 300 MW of PV solar power will provide the LNG plant's total annual energy needs. The Marsa LNG Bunkering project will achieve two remarkable milestones in the region. However, a plant with less than 3 kg of carbon dioxide emissions for every oil equivalent barrel. Also, building the first-of-its-kind LNG bunkering facility in the Middle East. The Marsa LNG project reflects OQ’s commitment to contributing to developing Oman’s energy sector to create long-term sustainable value. This collaboration is a testament to OQ’s consistent steps and unified goals in supporting economic growth in Oman. It is also diversifying its investments in a new energy area, namely an LNG bunkering facility for ship fuel. The Marsa LNG plant will be 100% electrically driven, positioning it as the lowest GHG intensity LNG plant ever built worldwide by setting a standard with such GHG efficiency. The plant's entire electrical design and the solar farm's integration will eliminate more than 200 kt/y of CO2e over the project's lifetime. The Marsa LNG project aims to serve as the first LNG bunkering hub in the Middle East. It showcases an available and competitive alternative marine fuel to reduce the shipping industry’s carbon footprint. Compared to conventional marine fuel, LNG helps to cut GHG emissions by up to 23%, sulfur emissions by 99%, fine particle emissions by 99% and nitrogen oxide emissions by up to 85%. The plant, powered entirely by solar energy, is expected to contribute to reducing carbon emissions and the shipping industry’s overall carbon footprint. It is projected to emit less than 3 kg of carbon dioxide per barrel of oil equivalent. The project also reflects Oman's goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. The partnership between OQ and TotalEnergies is a testament to their consistent efforts to support economic growth in Oman. It is also the development of the country's energy sector to create long-term sustainable value.

MUSCAT: Global integrated energy group OQ signed an investment agreement with TotalEnergies to establish the Marsa project to supply ships with liquefied natural gas (LNG) at the Port of Sohar, at a cost of $1.6 billion, with TotalEnergies contributing 80 per cent of the project costs and OQ with 20 per cent of the joint investment. The project is characterised by the integration of the upper and lower parts; where the upper part involves the production of 150 million cubic feet per day of gas from Block 10 concession area, and then the gas is transported through OQ to gas networks to the Port of Sohar. The lower part involves building a liquefied natural gas plant with a capacity of one million tonnes annually, consisting of a renewable energy station by building a 300-megawatt solar power station to provide the annual energy needs for the liquefied natural gas plant.
