KUWAIT CITY, May 20: Kuwait National Petroleum Company (KNPC) is currently contemplating on resuming the feasibility study for the sixth liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) production unit in the near future, taking into consideration the increase of its daily production from the five LPG trains to more than 1.818 billion cubic feet per day, say reliable sources from the company. Sources affirmed that this is in line with the ongoing efforts of KNPC to expand its local refining capacity and gas production. Sources explained that the move towards the sixth train idea stems from the successful implementation of the fifth LPG train project at Ahmadi Port Refinery three years ago, with a production capacity of 805 million cubic feet of gas per day and 106,000 barrels of condensate per day.
Sources said these steps enabled KNPC to maximize resources through the optimal utilization of associated and non-associated gas from crude oil to meet local and global demand by producing high-quality petroleum products that comply with international environmental standards. Sources pointed out that this approach solidified the position of Kuwait as a major and reliable supplier of clean energy in global markets. Sources indicated that KNPC continues to intensify its efforts to improve operational performance and achieve the highest levels of operational and financial excellence, while aiming to enter into partnerships with the private sector in the refining industry. Sources confirmed that KNPC is striving to implement renewable and alternative energy concepts, utilize environmentally friendly technologies, and lay down plans to maximize the use of solar energy in existing and new buildings. They also affirmed the installation of solar panels in several existing and new fuel stations.
They revealed that over the past years, KNPC succeeded in producing marine fuel oil with a maximum sulfur content of 0.5 percent through its Mina Abdullah refinery Sources stated that the vision of KNPC is based on maximizing the added value of the hydrocarbon resources of the country by producing high-quality fuel, which meets the needs of the local and global markets. Sources said the aim is to solidify the global position of the country in the oil refining industry by launching new projects aligned with the 2040 strategy of Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (KPC) and the 2050 energy transformation strategy to develop operational efficiency and sustainability.
