  "account": "Samsung E&A has been honored for the 15th consecutive year at the MEED Project Awards ceremony held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The Saudi Arabia Jafurah Gas Processing Facilities project received the Special Award for Strategic Energy Infrastructure. Samsung E&A has been included in the winners' list every year since 2012, demonstrating their consistent excellence. The Jafurah Gas Processing Facilities project is the largest unconventional gas field development project in Saudi Arabia, executed by Samsung E&A for Saudi state-run oil company Aramco. Despite challenges like supply chain disruptions due to COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine war, Samsung E&A managed to achieve first production of sales gas by December 2025.

This award is considered a benchmark for energy infrastructure quality in the Middle East and North Africa region, reinforcing Samsung E&A's technological edge and execution capabilities in the area.",
