A consortium headed by Technip Energies, the France-based global engineering and technology powerhouse, and comprising Consolidated Contractors Company (CCC), of Greece, and Dubai-based Gulf Asia Contracting (GAC), has been given a significant Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Commissioning (EPCC) project by QatarEnergy, on the onshore LNG facilities of the North Field West (NFW) project.
The Paris-listed company said in a press statement on Wednesday that the award is related to the supply of two mega trains, each having the capacity of 8 tonnes per annum (MTPA) of liquefied natural gas (LNG) as a replica of the two trains being constructed by Technip Energies and CCC to supply the North Field South (NFS) project.
Although the value of the contract was not announced in the statement, the company has classified the contract as a major award, which is more than €1 billion ($1.2 billion) of revenue.
The statement stated that the development project will result in an approximate 16 MTPA of LNG original output, and along with NFE and NFS developments, the overall LNG output of Qatar will be 77 MTPA to 142 MTPA.
It added that the North Field East (NFE), with 32 MTPA, and North Field South (NFS), with 16 MTPA, NFW will capture and sequestrate an additional 1.1 MTPA of CO2 to bring the total to 2.2 MTPA from NFS and NFW combined
However, Qatar has established a goal of capturing and sequestration of over 11 MTPA of CO2 by 2035. QatarEnergy reported in a separate statement that, in contrast to LNG production, the project is projected to produce about 175,000 barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) per day of condensate, ethane, and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG).
The contract scope includes facilities for gas treatment, natural gas liquids recovery, and helium extraction. The statement added that, on top of the Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS) facilities, jetty boil-off gas recovery facilities used in NFW will salvage an equal amount of 0.42 MTPA of CO2, which will cut down the emission of greenhouse gases.
A large part of the electrical needs of the project will be obtained through the solar plants of Qatar. It is stated that the first LNG cargo of the NFW project will be generated before the end of 2031.
While addressing the 21st International Conference and Exhibition on Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG2026) earlier this month, Saad Sherida Al-Kaabi, the Minister of State for Energy Affairs, the President and CEO of QatarEnergy, had said the company, with its partners, is building LNG for the future with the “lowest carbon footprint you can have.”
He mentioned that QatarEnergy is implementing the best technologies to minimize emissions, such as CO2 sequestration, to provide the most affordable energy to the market in the most responsible environmental way.
QatarEnergy has granted Samsung C&T Corporation an engineering In November 2025, procurement, and construction (EPC) contract to construct a CCS project to supply QatarEnergy with its existing LNG production sites in Ras Laffan Industrial City.
