MASTER GAS SYSTEM EXPANSION PHASE III

The Master Gas System is one of the world's largest hydrocarbon networks to transport gas to support industrialization.

The Phase 3 project aims to convert a number of power plants from oil to natural gas, contributing a cleaner energy mix and its net-zero emission goal.

More specifically, package 10 requires a 56-inch pipeline to be laid from sector one STS-2 to sector two STS-1, over a total of 310 km, while package 14 requires a total of 212 km of 56-inch, 10-inch and 18-inch diameters to be laid in the Shoaiba area. The following will be installed on the pipelines: 18 mainline valves (safety valves to control the flow of gas), 12 launching and receiving stations (for cleaning and maintenance), and 26 burn pits (for disposal). A key part in each package is played by civil, mechanical and electrical instrumentation engineering.
