Installation of new gas-processing facilities at Umm Said and modification of an existing NGL unit form the processing core for development of Qatar's North field. The field, discovered in 1971, is probably the largest single nonassociated gas reservoir known. Phase 1 of the three-phase development processes 800 MMscfd of gas, producing 1.65 million tons/year LPG and condensates for the export market. This Phase 1 development is intended to supply Qatar's domestic gas requirements through the year 2000. The present North field development project (NFDP) is the first phase of a long-range, three-phase development plan, with equal increments of 800 MMscfd. The first phase was started in July 1987 and is due for completion at the end of 1990.
