Worley supporting Qatargas' decarbonization ambitions through carbon sequestration

Once completed the sequestration facility will be capable of capturing 4.3 million tonnes of CO2 every year

  • By ICN Bureau | September 25, 2023

Worley is providing front-end engineering design (FEED) services for Qatargas’ CO2 sequestration project in Ras Laffan, Qatar.

Worley’s team will develop the FEED study and engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) scope of work. The project will be carried out by Worley's teams in Qatar and Australia and is set for completion in 2024.

Once completed the sequestration facility will be capable of capturing 4.3 million tonnes of CO2 every year. Helping to further reduce Qatargas’ environmental impact across the LNG value chain by reducing emissions from its seven LNG trains at QG North and three LNG trains at QG South.

CO2 will be captured from the trains, compressed, and injected into the new injection wells. New compression trains and pipelines need to be installed after FEED is completed.

Drawing in on expertise from our carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) centers of excellence, the project team will aim to prove the pre-FEED concept by modelling the CO2 capture process.

This high-level technical approach aims to further instill confidence to expand the CO2 sequestration technology in the future to include the remaining trains at Qatargas South and North.

“We’ve worked alongside Qatargas for over a decade and this project further supports Qatar on its sustainability journey. This also presents an opportunity to use our in-depth knowledge of the region and global expertise in delivering FEED services to the CCUS sector to drive project delivery. As we work towards our purpose of delivering a more sustainable world,” says Nawar Chapman, Country Manager Qatar & Kuwait.
