German engineering player Linde has won a contract from a Qatar-based unit of Shell and Qatar Petroleum to supply eight air separation units for the Pearl gas-to-liquids project, believed to be worth about $900 million.
An industry source, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Reuters the job was worth around $900 million.
“The required oxygen capacity for this world-scale project makes this the largest single contract ever placed for air separation units,” Linde said in a statement.
The Pearl GTL project is being built at Ras Laffan.
