“The Calcasieu Pass LNG Project involves an innovative modular, mid-scale configuration that enables Venture Global to produce low-cost LNG with a shorter construction schedule. Siemens was able to tailor a custom solution with added flexibility to match the EPC’s project schedule and start-up sequence,” said Matthew Russell, Siemens executive vice president for LNG.
Siemens aims to ship the compression trains in summer and fall 2020. Venture Global’s Calcasieu Pass LNG export facility will export around 10 MTPA of LNG to global markets once it is commissioned. It is currently being built in southwestern Louisiana’s Cameron Parish, near Lake Charles. Kiewit is carrying out engineering, procurement, and construction management (EPC) work, and has selected Siemens in connection with the balance of plant scope.
