Summary
Middle East oil and gas is entering an expansive period as regional firms undertake major field development programmes, expedite unconventional hydrocarbons exploration drives and work to secure their future market share in the industry.
Since 2011, more than $300bn of oil and gas project contracts have been awarded in the Mena region.
These investments have strengthened Saudi Arabia’s position as the world’s most influential oil exporter, and pushed Qatar into the number one spot for both liquefied natural gas (LNG) and gas-to-liquids (GTL) production.
Middle East oil and gas is entering an expansive period as regional firms undertake major field development programmes, expedite unconventional hydrocarbons exploration drives and work to secure their future market share in the industry.
About $652bn worth of oil, gas and petrochemicals projects planned or underway across the Mena region, according to regional projects tracker MEED Projects. Of this, some $392bn of projects have yet to have their main contracts awarded.
Current investments in upstream field exploration and production capacity this will lead to a significant expansion of the region’s oil production capacities of operators by 2025.
About $58.4bn of upstream oil projects currently under execution in Middle East and North African (Mena) countries. With many field discoveries expected to move into project development in late 2020, the region is expected to maintain a steady flow of capital expenditure towards upstream oil schemes.
Downstream, the Mena region is planning to add 2 million b/d of refining capacity by 2022. More than $200bn is expected to be ploughed into new refining and petrochemicals ventures in the GCC by 2025. Seven major refinery schemes worth more than $40bn in total that are currently in the front-end engineering and design (feed) phase.
These investments offer abundant new opportunities for contractors, consultants and suppliers working in the oil, gas and petrochemicals sector in the region.
There is also considerable change taking place in the way work is being procured and delivered in the region. The drive to increase the value of local content in projects requires companies to procure people, goods and services from local sources where possible, while the need to increase energy efficiency and reduce carbon dioxide emissions is becoming an important aspect of projects.
