LNG firm Qatargas, acting on behalf of Qatar Petroleum, has signed a technology license agreement with chemicals company BASF for the North Field Expansion Project in Qatar.
Under the agreement, BASF is providing two technologies, one for gas removal and another for gas treatment, marketed under the brand OASE® and FlexsorbTM for four new LNG trains in Qatar.
Gas removal and treatment technology is an integral part in the production of LNG. It removes impurities such as carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulphide from the natural gas stream to enable the subsequent liquefaction process to take place.
