RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (AP) -- Saudi Arabia's state-run oil giant Saudi Aramco says it has selected South Korea's Samsung Engineering Co. to build its giant Shaybah natural gas recovery facility.
Aramco said in a statement Wednesday that the project includes the engineering, procurement and construction of all four packages linked to the facility. It did not provide a price tag for the project.
Aramco said the recovery plant is part of its commitment to supply gas to the local market. It said the project also includes an upgrade to increase power generation capacity to more than 1 Giga Watt.
The company said the plant will extract natural gas liquid components from 2.4 billion standard cubic feet per day of associated natural gas coming from different gasoil separation plants.
