Background
Saudi Aramco plans to develop a gas processing plant at the Midyan non-associated gas field. The plant will be built in Tabuk.

The aim of the project is to reduce the burning of crude oil for power generation in the northwest of the kingdom in the summer months. Upon completion, the production capacity of the non-associated gas field is expected to reach 75 million cubic feet per day (cfd) of natural gas and 4,500 barrels per day (bpd) of condensates.

Project status
