The handover in Wilhelmshaven

The first unit was formally handed over at the Manitowoc/Grove plant in Wilhelmshaven, Germany and then shipped to Galfar Al Misnad’s new facility and equipment workshop in Doha, Qatar, before heading out on its first project at Ras Laffan, assisting in the construction of a gas pipeline as part of the local North Field Expansion Project. The second GMK4100L-2 will go to work on the same project once it reaches Qatar.
