Mubadala Petroleum has announced that the Qatar-UAE gas pipeline is on track and will be completed by the end of the year
Work began in 2013 on the US$250mn upgrade to the Dolphin Pipeline’s gas compression facilities, which would allow Qatar to export the full 90.6mn standard cubic metres that the pipeline was built to accommodate.
Maurizio La Noce, chief executive of Mubadala Petroleum, said, “By the end of this year Dolphin Pipeline is going to have the ability to push a lot more gas.
“When and if and how that gas is going to come, I don’t know. For us it’s important to have the availability of the capacity, and then it’s going to be between the Qatari authorities to determine.”
Mubadala Petroleum owns 51 per cent of Dolphin Pipeline, along with Total and Occidental Petroleum, The National said.
