Technip Energies has been awarded a major engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning (EPCC) contract by QatarEnergy for the North Field West (NFW) project, further advancing Qatar’s large-scale expansion of its liquefied natural gas (LNG) production capacity.

The contract, valued at more than €1 billion, will be executed by a joint venture comprising Technip Energies, Consolidated Contractors Company (CCC) and Gulf Asia Contracting (GAC).

The scope of work includes the delivery of two LNG mega-trains, each with a capacity of 8 million tonnes per annum (MTPA), bringing total production from the NFW project to approximately 16 MTPA. The trains will replicate those currently under construction for the North Field South (NFS) project, reflecting a standardized design approach across Qatar’s North Field expansion program.

Once completed, NFW will contribute to Qatar’s broader plan to increase LNG export capacity from 77 MTPA to 142 MTPA, alongside the North Field East (NFE) and NFS developments.

In addition to expanding production capacity, the project incorporates carbon capture and sequestration capabilities. NFW is expected to capture and store approximately 1.1 MTPA of CO2, bringing the combined CO2 sequestration capacity of NFS and NFW to 2.2 MTPA.

Arnaud Pieton, CEO of Technip Energies, said the award reflects the company’s ongoing relationship with QatarEnergy and its role in delivering large-scale LNG infrastructure. He added that the project builds on previous work across the North Field developments and supports efforts to meet growing global demand for LNG while reducing carbon intensity.

Technip Energies has maintained a presence in Qatar since 1986 and continues to position LNG as a core segment of its business, alongside hydrogen, sustainable chemistry and CO2 management.

The contract was recorded in the company’s Project Delivery segment in the first quarter of 2026.
