Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. (HHI) said that it has signed a letter of intent with Qatar Shell GTL Limited, a Royal Dutch Shell plc subsidiary, for the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) for the feed gas preparation works of the Pearl GTL Project. HHI will perform the work in a consortium with Chiyoda Corp. called CHC.
The project for two trains of gas processing units, with a capacity of 850 MSCFD and a total of 1,700 MSCFD of natural gas (equivalent to 8 MMTPA of LNG), will send feed gas to the GTL core unit to produce 140,000 barrels per day of GTL products. The project will be completed around the end of the decade in a staged sequence for phases 1 and 2.
