Venture Global LNG has started the installation of liquefaction equipment at its Calcasieu Pass liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facility in Cameron Parish, Louisiana. On June 19, Venture Global said it had begun installation of the first two brazed aluminum heat exchangers – or cold boxes – that will be part of the Calcasieu Pass LNG liquefaction process system, delivered four months ahead of schedule. The project will ultimately comprise 18 cold boxes, built in the US by Chart Industries.
The Calcasieu Pass LNG liquefaction process system will be composed of 18 mid-scale, modular liquefaction trains, factory-fabricated in Italy by Baker Hughes.
