The scope of the Project entails the implementation of a new train of 8 MMSm3 (Million Standard cubic meters) per day capacity of LPG and Condensate extraction from associated gas coming from the existing plants located nearby ZCINA facility outside the battery limits.
This project is an extension to the existing ZCINA LPG plant which operations have been started up from June 2013 with three LPG Trains, to increase the production of LPG and condensate from the Hassi Messaoud field.

We believe that this project can represent the first step of a long-lasting successful collaboration with a prestigious Client such as SONATRACH, also in consideration of the strategic relationship between our two Countries in the global energy supply scenario.”
