QatarEnergy has signed a 15-year LNG Sale and Purchase Agreement (SPA) with Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (KPC) for the supply of up to 3 million tons per annum (MTPA) of LNG to the State of Kuwait

According to the SPA terms, the contracted LNG volumes will be delivered ex-ship to Kuwait's Al-Zour LNG Terminal onboard QatarEnergy’s conventional, Q-Flex, and Q-Max LNG vessels, starting in January 2025.

The agreement was signed during a special ceremony held in Kuwait City by Saad Sherida Al-Kaabi, the Minister of State for Energy Affairs, the president and CEO of QatarEnergy, and Shaikh Nawaf Saud Al-Nasir Al-Sabah, deputy chairman and CEO of KPC. The signing was witnessed by senior executives from KPC and QatarEnergy.

Al-Kaabi said, “I am pleased to be in Kuwait, a country that is dear to our hearts, and to build a new long-term partnership between KPC and QatarEnergy, that constitutes a central element in supporting Kuwait’s sustainability goals particularly in the electricity generation sector. It also reflects our commitment to support the future needs of all our clients, foremost of which is KPC.

“Our bilateral relations continue to grow and achieve the aspirations and interests of our peoples under the wise leadership of His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani and His Highness Sheikh Meshal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, which underlines the deep brotherly ties and the long-term partnership between Kuwait and Qatar.”

This new agreement is the second long term LNG SPA with KPC, and is considered pivotal in further boosting bilateral trade between the State of Qatar and the State of Kuwait.

Michael Smith Engineers Ltd has launched the TPM magnetic coupled peripheral pump, engineered by Dickow Pumpen

The TPM peripheral pump, also known as a turbine pump, is designed to meet the demanding requirements of industries including oil & gas, chemical, petrochemical, aviation, and renewable energy. It operates in a similar way to centrifugal and side-channel pumps, offering the best of both worlds. With its low Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) requirements, the TPM pump is ideally suited for applications with limited suction head.

The TPM range can deliver flow rates of up to 17 m³/hr and a maximum differential head of 400 metres. With a design pressure of 40 bar and maximum operating temperature of 300°C, the TPM range is built to ensure reliable performance even under the most challenging conditions.

One notable feature of the pump is its ability to handle liquids with entrained gas, enabling continuous operation even during gas release or temporary air ingress. Additionally, its hermetically sealed design makes it ideally suited to handling toxic, explosive, or environmentally hazardous fluids, ensuring safety and compliance with stringent environmental standards.

David Todd of Michael Smith Engineers said, "‘We are delighted to be able to offer our customers this new pump technology from Dickow Pump, whom we have been in partnership with for almost three decades. We are confident this will be as successful as the rest of the Dickow pump range."
