United Arab Emirates: TotalEnergies Strengthens its Position in the Emirates
through its Partnership in Ruwais LNG
TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE) joins, with a 10% interest, the
Ruwais LNG project alongside national company ADNOC (60%), Shell (10%), bp
(10%) and Mitsui (10%).
Launched by ADNOC in June 2024, Ruwais LNG is a liquefied natural gas (LNG)
project located in Al Ruwais Industrial city, in Abu Dhabi. The project
includes two liquefaction trains with a total capacity of 9.6 million tons per
year. Start-up is expected in the second half of 2028.
The project applies the highest standards to reduce emissions: its
full-electric liquefaction trains will be supplied with clean power by the
UAE’s grid, making it one of the world’s lowest-carbon intensity LNG
plants. The facility will also leverage the latest technologies to enhance
safety, drive efficiency and minimize emissions.
“We are delighted to join forces with our long-standing partner ADNOC on the
development of this new LNG project. Last year at COP28, TotalEnergies and
ADNOC both committed to lead the Oil & Gas Decarbonization Charter to
reduce the industry’s GHG emissions. With Ruwais LNG, we are putting this
principle into practice with one of the world’s lowest-carbon intensity LNG
plants, allowing natural gas to fully play its role of transition fuel", said
Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and CEO of TotalEnergies.
“We are delighted to welcome bp, Mitsui & Co., Shell, and TotalEnergies
as partners in ADNOC’s Ruwais LNG project, which will be one of the
world’s lowest carbon-intensive LNG facilities. As natural gas demand
continues to increase, this world-class project will enable us to provide more
lower-carbon gas to meet growing demand today while helping the world
transition to a cleaner energy future. Additionally, the project will
accelerate development in Al Ruwais Industrial City, boost the local
industrial ecosystem and create more skilled private sector jobs for UAE
Nationals”, said His Excellency Dr. Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, ADNOC Managing
Director and Group CEO.
