Sulzer Chemtech benefits from booming gas market in the Middle East
Sulzer Wins Large Contract for Pearl GTL Project
In February 2007, Sulzer Chemtech has been selected by Qatar Shell GTL Limited to design and supply column internals and other key equipment for the Pearl Gas to Liquids (GTL) plant in Ras Laffan Industrial City, Qatar.

The Pearl GTL project comprises the development of upstream gas production facilities and an onshore GTL plant that will produce 140,000 barrels per day of GTL products, including naphtha, GTL fuel, normal paraffins, kerosene, and lubricant base oils. In addition, the plant will also produce approximately 120,000 barrels per day of condensate, liquefied petroleum gas, and ethane. When completed, it will be the world’s largest integrated GTL complex. GTL is complementary to liquefied natural gas and pipelines and helps countries to diversify their energy supplies. GTL products are clean and odorless, contain virtually no sulfur, nitrogen, and aromatics, and result in higher air quality for cities.
