Tebodin Middle East, part of the Netherlands' Tebodin, which is due to complete front-end engineering and design (FEED) studies by mid-March (see below), is understood to have been instructed to extend the proposed pipeline beyond its original terminus at block-valve station 9 to Sur. The extension adds a further 75 kilometres of pipeline to the proposed 250-kilometre-long link.
Total project costs are estimated to be in the region of $300 million. The pipeline will eventually forward additional volumes of gas from the central gas processing facilities at Saih Nihayda to the proposed 3.3 million-tonne-a-year (t/y) liquefied natural gas (LNG) train at Sur (MEED 17:1:03).
