The laboratory, whose completion is expected by June 2003, has been designed to produce both sweet and bitter gas. It will supply the main gas network with 1.5 billion cubic feet butane (cooking gas). A large proportion of the product will be consumed in the Eastern Province and will be supplied to Riyadh and Yanbu.
