The project involves the complete engineering, procurement, construction, installation, and commissioning (EPCIC) of a 720mn ft3/day onshore LNG regasification facility, including marine works, jetty topside work, and other associated components.
Jordan, which heavily relies on natural gas for its power and industrial needs, has faced challenges with supply reliability. The new LNG terminal will give Jordan the flexibility to source LNG from various global suppliers, ensuring a stable and secure energy supply, according to the company.
The Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al Sabah onshore regasification LNG terminal project adds to GAS Entec and AG&P's existing portfolio, which includes LNG terminals in Indonesia and the Philippines, four FSRU conversions globally, two LNG FSU carrier conversions, and three LNG bunkering ships in North America, Japan, and Singapore.
