Surge Arresters

Zohr, an offshore gas field located in the Shorouk area of Egypt, represents the largest discovery of its kind in the Mediterranean. Identified using advanced offshore exploration techniques, this massive natural gas project lies approximately two hundred kilometers north of Port Said. With vast reserves, Zohr has the potential to meet Egypt’s energy demands for many years to come. Moreover, it positions the country to become a significant player in liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports within the Mediterranean region. The project required the implementation of cutting-edge technological solutions to develop infrastructure that adhered to strict timelines, budgets, and quality standards, from the initial exploration phase to production commencement.

The project aims to replace the temporary Let Down Station, installed in 2015, with permanent pressure reduction facilities at the expansion area of GS. This upgrade is intended to transport gas to the local market and supply the existing Sirte Oil Company (SOC) coastal gas pipeline with an increased capacity of 19.5 MSm3/d of sales gas at a higher pressure of 51 Bar.
