en.Wedoany.com Reported - The expansion project of the Fadhili Gas Plant in Saudi Arabia's Eastern Province is steadily progressing and is expected to be completed in November 2027. The project is being implemented through a collaboration between Samsung Engineering, GS Engineering & Construction, and Nesma & Partners.

The expansion will increase the plant's processing capacity from 2.5 billion standard cubic feet per day (BSCFD) to approximately 4 BSCFD, adding about 1.5 BSCFD of new capacity. This directly supports Saudi Aramco's goal to increase gas production by more than 60% from 2021 levels by 2030. The sulfur recovery capacity will also be increased by approximately 2,300 tons per day, helping to reduce emissions.

The Fadhili Gas Plant expansion is a crucial part of Saudi Arabia's natural gas infrastructure development, supporting downstream industries such as power and petrochemicals by ensuring a stable supply. Construction on the project began in 2024, and engineering, procurement, and construction activities are currently advancing smoothly across multiple packages.

The total investment for the Fadhili Gas Plant expansion project is approximately $7.7 billion, and it is operated by Saudi Aramco. The expansion scope includes adding three gas processing trains, expanding sulfur recovery units, and installing pipeline infrastructure.
