Santos GLNG has installed the final module on its two LNG processing trains, key components of its gas liquefaction plant on Curtis Island, Queensland, Australia, according to a company press release.
The last of the 111 modules used to build the two trains was installed earlier this week. Train 1 comprises 82 modules. Train 2 comprises 29. The modules were constructed in Batangas in the Philippines and shipped to Curtis Island individually.
Final pipework and cabling on the trains will now take place before commissioning of the plant begins later this year, the release said. The company is looking toward first LNG in 2015.
Bechtel is constructing Santos GLNG’s two-train LNG plant on Curtis Island, off the coast of Gladstone. Santos GLNG is a joint venture between Santos, Petronas, Total and KOGAS.
