Siemens wins compression contract for Golden Pass LNG export project
Siemens Gas and Power’s scope of supply
covers the engineering, manufacturing, and testing of the three, single-shaft centrifugal
BOG compression packages, along with all installation and commissioning
activities. Each of the compressor
packages will be driven by a 6.8-megawatt (MW) electric motor. Manufacturing,
testing, and packaging will take place in Duisburg, Germany.
The project scope also includes a frame agreement to
supply all low-voltage electric motors and electric variable speed drives (1 –
200 horsepower) and all medium-voltage (250 – 1,500 horsepower) electric motors.
In addition to the BOG compressor trains, Siemens Gas and Power will
also provide steam turbine generator sets for the Golden Pass LNG export
terminal.
“With 90% global market share and a fleet
that has accumulated more than 4.2 million hours of service, Siemens Gas and
Power is a worldwide leader in cryogenic boil-off gas compression,” said Matthew
Russell, Executive Vice President of LNG for Siemens Energy Oil & Gas
Division. “We believe our expertise in the design and manufacturing of BOG compressors,
along with our strong presence in the LNG market, played an integral role in
securing the Golden Pass compression contract.”
