ADNOC has announced its Final Investment Decision for the SARB Deep Gas Development project, part of the Ghasha Concession offshore Abu Dhabi. The initiative aims to deliver up to 200 million standard cubic feet of gas per day before the end of the decade. This supply is expected to provide enough energy for more than 300,000 homes each day.
The project will use advanced technologies and artificial intelligence and will be operated remotely from Arzanah Island. Existing infrastructure will be leveraged to improve efficiency and safety measures.
Musabbeh Al Kaabi, ADNOC Upstream CEO, stated: “We are pleased to confirm the final investment decision for the SARB Deep Gas Development. This strategic project within the Ghasha Concession reinforces the progress we are making to fully unlock Abu Dhabi’s world-class gas resources, supporting UAE gas self-sufficiency and strengthening the nation’s role as a reliable exporter to international markets. The development will leverage advanced technologies and AI and maximizes synergies across ADNOC’s offshore infrastructure, unlocking efficiencies and value.”
The SARB Deep Gas Development is located 120 kilometers offshore from Abu Dhabi. It consists of a new platform with four production wells that connect to Das Island. The extracted gas will be sent to ADNOC Gas facilities on Das Island for upstream treatment, integrating with other ongoing ADNOC projects.
The SARB development supports both economic growth in the UAE and workforce empowerment through ADNOC’s In-Country Value program, which focuses on enhancing local talent and supporting domestic industry.
