The project involves the construction of a new gas-fired Combined Cycle Gas Turbine — CCGT unit with a capacity of approximately 600–650 MW, developed to increase power generation capacity and improve the efficiency of the existing plant. Operated by JSC Thermal Power Plants and built with Mitsubishi Power technology, the new unit will contribute to the production of electricity and heat while reducing natural gas consumption.
The KIMA Project is an expansion of the Egyptian Chemical Industries (KIMA) industrial complex in Aswan, Egypt. The project aims to increase the production of nitrogen-based fertilizers for domestic and international markets while improving the plant’s energy efficiency through the use of natural gas as feedstock.
In production since 2004, In Salah Gas is a joint venture between Sonatrach, BP and Statoil (now Equinor). It is Algeria’s largest dry natural gas joint venture and one of the country’s key gas export projects supplying Southern Europe. The project has a production capacity of approximately 9 billion cubic metres of dry natural gas per year from seven gas fields located in the central Algerian Sahara.
