INTRODUCTION
The ADNOC Ruwais LNG Project is a two train, near net-zero electrically driven LNG facility, targeting international markets. The feed gas for the project is supplied from the Habshan Gas Processing Plant via a new export gas pipeline. The plant will have two 4.8 MTPA (nominal capacity) electric driven LNG Trains with associated LNG storage/marine export facilities and utilities.
Figure 1 – Project Context
The ADNOC Ruwais LNG Project foresees the following main components at the facility:
• Onshore LNG Liquefaction facilities for 2 x 4.8 MTPA electrically driven LNG Trains (9.6MTPA
total)
• Common facilities including inlet receiving facilities, LNG storage, BOG handling, flare,
refrigerant storage and support buildings.
• Utilities to support the facilities including import power from the national grid.
• Marine facilities for LNG export and bunkering.
1.1
Scope of the Document
The purpose of this document is to provide a Project specific addendum to the ADNOC Group Engineering Standard AGES-SP-04-006, Instrument and control cables Specification. This document provides an overview of Instrument & Telecommunication cables specification to be applied for the Project.
