Braemar Engineering has been appointed as Owner’s Engineers for United LNG, LP for the world’s largest floating LNG production project.
The project, situated offshore near Venice, Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico, will be the world’s largest floating LNG export project, with three floating liquefaction units projected to export up to 24 million metric tonnes per annum (MTPA) of LNG, commencing in spring 2018.
“With decades of LNG experience, we are proud to be working with a world class organization like Braemar Engineering,” said Stephen Payne, chairman of United LNG.
“This is a very exciting opportunity for us,” says Sheila McClain, vice president of business development for Braemar in Houston.
“Braemar Engineering is one of the most experienced consulting engineering firms in the LNG industry, offering services to support the entire LNG chain, and the level of expertise and experience we will be able to contribute to this project is unique.”
“Braemar Engineering brings both floating LNG experience and shore based production experience – a combination of skills which really counts in this rapidly developing field.”
The project includes modification of existing offshore structures, construction of new facilities, construction, installation, and operation of floating liquefaction storage vessels to be used for the on-site liquefaction and exportation of LNG from offshore Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico.
