PNG Gas - Technical Description

Technical Description

The two-train LNG plant will have capacity of 6.3 million tonne of LNG per annum. In addition to the gas from the Hides field, potentially gas could be sourced also from the Juha and Angore fields. The pre-FEED study was completed by the end of 2007. The decision to proceed with the Front End Engineering Design (FEED) will be made at the end of March or early April 2008. The FEED most likely would be prepared by KBR. The final investment decisions should be made in 2009. The plant is expected to be commissioned by 2013 and it is expected to cost US$9.5 billion, of which the development of the Hides, Juha and Angore gas fields together with a pipeline to the coast may cost US$5 billion, while the LNG plant could cost US$4.5 billion.

Famous quotes containing the words technical and/or description:

    A technical objection is the first refuge of a scoundrel.
    Heywood Broun (1888–1939)

    I fancy it must be the quantity of animal food eaten by the English which renders their character insusceptible of civilisation. I suspect it is in their kitchens and not in their churches that their reformation must be worked, and that Missionaries of that description from [France] would avail more than those who should endeavor to tame them by precepts of religion or philosophy.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
