In
1999, the government of Abu Dhabi established Dolphin Energy Limited to
implement the Dolphin Gas Project. This unique strategic energy initiative
began gas production in July 2007. The Project involves production and
processing of natural gas from Qatar's offshore North Field and transportation
of the processed gas by subsea pipeline to the UAE and Oman.
In
addition, the company undertook other important energy-related developments
such as the Al Ain – Fujairah Gas Pipeline. This 182-kilometer pipeline was
completed in December 2003 and commissioned in January 2004. This created the
first ever cross-border refined natural gas transmission in the history of the
GCC.
