The Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) announced that it signed a 15-year Sales and Purchase Agreement (SPA) with Mitsui & Co., Ltd., to supply up to 0.6 million tons per annum (mtpa) of lower-carbon liquified natural gas (LNG) from its Ruwais LNG project.

This marks the fifth long-term LNG SPA for Ruwais LNG and further reinforces ADNOC’s commitment to Japan’s energy security and the supply of cleaner energy worldwide.

Ruwais LNG, set to commence operations in 2028, is expected to become one of the lowest-carbon intensity LNG plants globally, powered by clean energy and advanced AI-driven technology.

With up to 8 mtpa of its 9.6 mtpa capacity already committed to customers across the world, Ruwais LNG underscores ADNOC’s growing global footprint and its role as a reliable global supplier of lower-carbon LNG.

Upon project completion, ADNOC Gas is expected to acquire ADNOC’s share in Ruwais LNG at cost, more than doubling its domestically operated LNG production capacity to approximately 15 mtpa and accelerating its long-term growth strategy.
