AboutOur Product
As a leading natural gas
supplier in the region,
DolphinEnergy prides itself
onproducing clean, pure,
high-quality natural gas to
satisfy the energy needs of
its customers and society.
DolphinEnergy’smethane
gas is sweet, dry, high-
grade, and97%pure, and
the company oversees every
aspect of the gas handling.
This includes appraisal,
development, transportation,
andmarketing, in addition
toproduction. Dolphin
Energy provides its gas to
local markets in theUAE
andOman.
As natural gas is considered
the “greenest” fossil fuel,
DolphinEnergy’s improved
performance and supply of
gas significantly reduces
the environmental footprint
of the company and its
customers. The total amount
of carbondioxide released
from combustionof natural
gas is approximately
twenty-fivepercent less
than that released from the
combustionof fuel oil. From
the timeDolphinEnergy
began supplying natural gas
through the endof 2011
DolphinEnergy has supplied
about 3.4 trillion cubic feet
of natural gas to itsUAE and
Oman customers. The use
of this natural gas, when
compared to the use of fuel
oil for the samepurposes,
has resulted in approximately
59million tons less carbon
dioxide emissions thus
contributing to a significant
reduction in the carbon
footprint of theUAE
andOman.
In addition to theproduction
ofmethane gas, the
optimization and capturing
ofmethaneby-products—
ethane, propane, butane,
and associated hydrocarbon
condensate and sulfur—is
essential toDolphinEnergy’s
corebusiness. The company
provides condensate,
liquefiedpetroleumgas
(LPG), and sulfur toglobal
markets, whichprovides
DolphinEnergywithmultiple
additional lines of revenue
while reducingwaste
drastically. Ethane is sold to
Qatar Petroleum (QP) for use
as feedstock to their ethane
cracker inQatar.
