TOTAL has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Government of Oman to develop a liquefied natural gas (LNG) bunkering service at the Port of Sohar.
Total and Shell as operator will develop several natural gas discoveries located in the greater Barik area on onshore Block 6 with respective shares of 25 per cent and 75 per cent.
Total then plans to use its equity gas entitlement to develop Oman as a regional LNG bunkering hub with a new small-scale liquefaction plant to be built at Sohar port. The plant will provide a train of one million tonnes per year, reported Colchester's Seatrade Maritime News.
Total president exploration and production Arnaud Breuillac commented: "We will bring our expertise in LNG and will introduce access to a new gas market for the Sultanate. Developing an LNG bunkering service will generate in-country value and job opportunities and will support industry diversification through fostering the shipping activity in Oman."
