Overview

The Master Gas System 3 (MGS-3) is a monumental project that is set to redefine Saudi Arabia’s energy landscape and drive its ambitious Vision 2030. This isn’t just an infrastructure project; it’s a strategic move to power the Kingdom’s future by shifting away from liquid fuels and embracing a cleaner, more efficient energy source: natural gas. By significantly expanding the nation’s gas network, MGS-3 is a critical component of Saudi Arabia’s economic diversification and its commitment to a more sustainable energy mix.

 

The project is designed to boost the capacity of the existing Master Gas System by an additional 3.15 billion standard cubic feet per day (bscfd) by 2028. This will be achieved by adding approximately 4,000 kilometers of new pipelines and 17 new gas compression trains, creating a vast, interconnected network that will span the length and breadth of the country. This massive expansion is key to meeting the rising energy demands of a growing economy and ensuring a reliable and efficient power supply for new industrial cities and a burgeoning population.

SCOPE

Extensive excavation, grading, and compaction to prepare thousands of kilometers of right-of-way for the new gas pipelines.

The Master Gas System Expansion Phase 3 is a transformative infrastructure initiative that significantly increases Saudi Arabia’s natural gas distribution capacity. It enables the Kingdom to meet rising domestic demand, reduce reliance on crude oil for power generation, and support industrial growth with cleaner, more efficient energy. By expanding pipeline networks and compression systems, it strengthens energy security, reduces carbon emissions, and aligns with Vision 2030’s goals of economic diversification and sustainability. The project also enhances Saudi Aramco’s global competitiveness in the gas market while creating long-term value across sectors.
