  • Minimization of SO2 Emissions at ADGAS (Das Island, UAE): II- Impact on Air Quality
    Environ & m m en u ta le l o B r t i o e t P e f c h Abu-Eishah et al., J Pet Environ Biotechnol 2014, 5:2 o Journal of Petroleum & n l a o l n o r DOI: 10.4172/2157-7463.1000172 g u y o J ISSN: 2157-7463 Environmental Biotechnology Research Article Open Access Minimization of SO2 Emissions at ADGAS (Das Island, UAE): II- Impact on Air Quality Samir I Abu-Eishah1*, Haitham SA Babahar2 and Munjed Maraqa3 1Chemical & Petroleum Engineering Department, UAE University, Al Ain, UAE 2Process Engineer, ADGAS Co., P.O. Box 22994, Al Ain, UAE 3Civil & Environmental Engineering Department, UAE University, P.O. Box 17555, Al Ain, UAE Abstract In Part I of this work, two SO2 minimization schemes, namely, Fuel Gas Sweetening (FGS) and Seawater-Flue Gas Desulfurization (SW-FGD) schemes have been proposed to be implemented at the ADGAS plant (Das Island, UAE). The implementation of such schemes is expected to reduce the SO2 emissions by 77%. The FGS scheme is expected to reduce the H2S content in the fuel gas system by 94% and results in decreasing the total SO2 emissions due to fuel gas usage by 98%. The SW-FGD scheme is expected to reduce the SO2 emissions due to incomplete sulfur recovery by 99.5%. This work is based on on-site measurements and data collected from specific locations at the ADGAS plant and over the Das Island, UAE. These data were loaded into air dispersion model software (AERMOD 7, 2008) and simulated to predict future air quality on the Island.

    Planning Abu Dhabi: From Arish Village to a Global, Sustainable, Arab Capital City By Alamira Reem Bani Hashim A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Elizabeth S. Macdonald, Chair Professor Michael Southworth Professor Greig Crysler Summer 2015 © Alamira Reem Bani Hashim Abstract Planning Abu Dhabi: From Arish Village to a Global, Sustainable Arab Capital City by Alamira Reem Bani Hashim Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning University of California, Berkeley Professor Elizabeth S. Macdonald, Chair The overarching objective of this research project is to explore and document the urban history of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. It is organized as a comparative study of urban planning and design processes in Abu Dhabi during three major periods of the city’s development following the discovery of oil: (1) 1960-1966: Sheikh Shakhbut Bin Sultan Al Nahyan’s rule (2) 1966-2004: Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan’s rule; and (3) 2004-2013: Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan’s rule. The intention of this study is to go beyond a typical historical narrative of sleepy village-turned-metropolis, to compare and contrast the different visions of each ruler and his approach to development; to investigate the role and influence of a complex network of actors, including planning institutions, architects, developers, construction companies and various government agencies; to examine the emergence and use of comprehensive development plans and the policies and values underlying them; as well as to understand the decision-making processes and design philosophies informing urban planning, in relation to the political and economic context of each period.

    ADNOC Leads by Example Ayedh Al Masaabi Manager, Crisis & Emergency Division, ADNOC With the fact of just how sensitive the Abu Dhabi waters are when it comes to oil marine pollution, the Crisis & Emergency Management Team are always on stand-by and ready to mobilize at the first sign of trouble. Our teams are already strategically established across the Abu Dhabi Emirate, were we have two major oil spill response centers located at Mussafah & Ruwais, a response outpost at Al-Dabb’iya, and a response vessel anchored between Zirku & Das Island for quick initial response. The well trained teams based at these locations are not only capable of providing support to the teams already established at each of the operating companies, but are also equipped to deploy quickly with significant stockpiles of equipment to respond to a larger tier two spills. Developing Capabilities & Training: With our team all being trained in-house with programs that have been accredited by the Nautical Institute of the UK to meet the requirements of International Maritime Organization (IMO), the Crisis & Emergency Management Team is ready for the plans that are being developed with the cooperation of the Abu Dhabi Maritime Security Council and UAE Armed Forces to handle the national Tier 2 requirements. As for the Tier 1 operations, they are responsibilities to be upheld by the Oil Producing Companies (OPCO), with the support of the Crisis & Emergency Management Team to enhance their response capability. Moreover, during the year, we have also undertaken courses with National Emergency Crisis and Disasters Management Authority sponsorship, where our team went to UK and attended various training courses; also various conferences and courses in the UAE attended by international participants.

  • Abu Dhabi Gas Demand Could Limit Sour Gas for LNG
    www.poten.com June 30, 2009 Abu Dhabi Gas Demand Could Limit Sour Gas for LNG Abu Dhabi Gas Liquefaction Co is considering plans to increase LNG production at its complex on Das Island beyond 2019, when its 4.7 MMt/y LNG sales contract with TEPCO expires. The expansion option would include replacing smaller existing trains with a much larger new one. It would depend upon expanding gas production to cover growing domestic demand and reinjection into oil fields, while freeing up extra offshore gas for LNG export. With domestic energy demand growing at 10% per year, Abu Dhabi has decided to move forward with a plan to invest up to $50 billion in developing large onshore and shallow water sour gas reserves. But freeing up extra gas for LNG could prove to be a very tall order. Standing at more than 6 Tcm, the UAE’s gas reserves are the world’s fifth largest. However, much of the gas is either already locked into the gas caps in Abu Dhabi’s oil fields or needed for reinjection. With official oil reserves of 98 billion barrels, the gas reinjection requirement will continue for many years. Abu Dhabi National Oil Co injects 18 Bcm/y into its oil fields and this is projected to increase by 8% annually through 2020. With the country almost exclusively dependent on gas-fueled power generation, total gas consumption is projected to reach close to 90 Bcm/y by 2018, doubling the 50 Bcm including reinjection used in 2008. The UAE has already tapped gas supplies from Qatar via the Dolphin pipeline to meet its needs, but its large sour gas reserves in the past had been considered too costly to develop.
