Star Consortium, formed by TransAsia Gas International and Star Petro Energy, has committed to investing $2bn over a five-year period in a joint venture with the state National Oil Corporation (NOC). Its initial focus will be on refurbishing the Ras Lanuf export refinery, whose design capacity is approximately 220,000 b/d (AE 130/16).
