Japan's JGC Corp to Build Gas Processing Plant in Bahrain

Japan’s JGC Corporation has been awarded a $355 million EPC contract to build a gas processing plant in Bahrain.

In a statement issued Wednesday, the company said the contract was awarded by the Bahrain National Gas Expansion Company (B.S.C.). The plant, with a daily throughput capacity of 350 MMSCFD, will be located in the Bahrain oil field area south of Awali, near Jebel Al-Dukhan.

This project is intended to construct a plant for recovering high-value-added petroleum constituents (LPG, and naphtha) contained in petroleum-entrained gas which have not been recovered in the past, JGC said. 

The project is expected to take 32 months to be ready for a trial run and start actual operations in September 2018, Bahrain News Agency said in a separate report.
