Saudi Aramco has launched a tender to build gas treatment units at Uthmaniyah, sources familiar with the matter said on Thursday, in a project expected to cost upwards of $500 million.
Top oil exporter Saudi Arabia is struggling to keep up with domestic demand for gas, used in a number of sectors such as petrochemicals that are key to diversifying the economy.
The aim of the project is to recover ethane but also propane and other natural gas liquids (NGL) from 1.4 billion standard cubic feet per day (scfd) of sales gas. Bidding is due to close by the end of May, one of the sources said.
