Regional Gas Player: Pioneered UAE’s intra-emirate gas market
Crescent Petroleum pioneered commercial intra-emirate gas supply and sales arrangements in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Based on gas supplies from Sharjah to Dubai and built a dedicated 92km offshore pipeline and associated central gas processing facility from its Mubarek field to Jebel Ali, Dubai. Being a pioneer in developing this market led to the formation of Dana Gas as the region’s first privately held gas company in 2005.
