Regulatory News:
TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE) (45%, operator)
and its partners Basra Oil Company (30%) and QatarEnergy (25%)
launched today the construction works of ArtawiGas25, a first
processing facility for the associated gas from the Ratawi field,
located in the Basra region.
This facility, which is part of the Gas Growth Integrated
Project (GGIP), represents an investment of around USD 250 million
and will process 50 million cubic feet per day (Mcf/d) of gas
previously flared. The gas will supply local power plants, covering
the demand of approximately 200,000 households in the Basra
region.
Signed in September 2021, the GGIP project is a USD 10 billion
multi-energy project designed to enhance the development of Iraq’s
natural resources and improve the country’s electricity supply. The
GGIP includes a large-scale gas processing plant, with a first
phase of 300 Mcf/d that will recover gas being flared on three oil
fields and supply gas to 1.5 GW of power generation capacity.
In anticipation of the start-up of this main gas processing
facility, the ArtawiGas25 project will significantly reduce gas
flaring at the Ratawi field as early as end 2025. The innovative
modular design of ArtawiGas25 could also pave the way for potential
replication across other Iraqi oil fields. ArtawiGas25 will create
up to 160 direct and indirect jobs for Iraqi nationals during
construction phase and 30 jobs during operation phase.
"We are very pleased to launch the ArtawiGas25 project: it will
give the Iragi people a tangible insight into the benefits of the
GGIP, which will provide more energy with less emissions. Through
this project, TotalEnergies is demonstrating its capacity to
deliver valuable and fast-track solutions in accordance with the
government’s expectations and the country’s electricity needs. We
look forward to the next GGIP milestones in the coming weeks with
the start of construction of the 1 GW solar project”, said
Julien Pouget, Senior Vice President Middle East & North
Africa, Exploration & Production at TotalEnergies.
