ADNOC Gas apportioned USD 3.6 billion to the alliance between National Petroleum Construction Company Co. PJSC (NPCC) and Tecnicas Reunidas S.A. This initiative targets a comprehensive expansion of the nation's gas processing infrastructure, primarily catering to the Ruwais Industrial Complex.

The ambitious Maximizing Ethane Recovery and Monetization (MERAM) project sets twin goals.
