Abu Dhabi: Dolphin Energy Limited confirmed on Tuesday that it will supply gas to Oman starting October, or as soon as Oman is ready to receive it.
An agreement to deliver an average of 200 million standard cubic feet of gas a day to Oman was signed with the Oman Oil Company (OOC) in 2005 in Abu Dhabi.
It provides for Dolphin gas from Qatar to be delivered through Dolphin's Eastern Gas Distribution System (EGDS), via a hook-up near Al Ain on the UAE-Oman border.
The agreement is valid for a period of 25 years, commencing no later than October 31.
The gas will arrive in Oman after flowing through Dolphin's Export Pipeline from Qatar, then being monitored on arrival at the company's Receiving Facilities in Taweelah, Abu Dhabi, before its cross-country journey via the EGDS.
