Mumbai, Sep, 23 (PW news): L&T Hydrocarbon bags a major project order worth Rs700 crore for setting up a green field project plan to treat an average of 3 MMSCMD of gas in the GCC region from the Petroleum Development Oman LLC (PDO).

The order was bagged by L&T Hydrocarbon’s mid and downstream business segment against stiff competition from reputed international EPC bidders.

Lekhwair Gas Field development project is a single train gas plant in the Lekhwair gas plant for exporting treated gas (CO2 removed and dehydrated gas) to the government gas plant in Yibal and unsterilized condensed water to the existing Lekhwair Production Station.

The project includes main gas treatment plant consisting of gas desulfurization and gas dehydration units with required utilities and supporting facilities like flow lines, well pad piping, remote manifold station, liquid and gas export
pipelines.

With significant growth potential in the natural gas market in the GCC region, this order is strategic from the point of view of L&T’s capability to execute such projects in an extremely competitive environment.

In the past, L&T has worked for establishing onshore gas processing complexes for Reliance Industries Ltd at Kakinada, Cairn Energy at Barmer and is presently executing  two  gas  treatment  projects  for  ONGC  at  Uran  and  Hazira.
