LNG Canada selects main automation contractor
TORONTO (miningweekly.com) – LNG Canada, a joint venture (JV) comprising Shell Canada Energy (50%), an affiliate of Royal Dutch Shell, and affiliates of PetroChina (20%), Korea Gas Corporation (15%) and Mitsubishi Corporation (15%), has selected Yokogawa Electric Corporation as the main automation contractor for a natural gas liquefaction project.
Yokogawa Electric International, a Yokogawa subsidiary that manages the company’s global control business, had also won an order to provide comprehensive control system-related front-end engineering and design (FEED) services to CFSW LNG Constructors, the main contractor for LNG Canada.
CFSW is a JV that was set up by the Canadian subsidiaries of Chiyoda Corporation of Japan, Foster Wheeler of the UK, Saipem of Italy and WorleyParsons of Australia to execute this project.
The proposed LNG Canada project comprised the design, construction and operation of a gas liquefaction plant and facilities for storing and exporting liquefied natural gas (LNG), including marine facilities in Kitimat, British Columbia.
LNG Canada would initially consist of two LNG processing units - referred to as trains - each with the capacity to produce about six-million tonnes of LNG a year, with an option to expand the project in the future to four trains.
Subject to a financial investment decision by LNG Canada for the proposed LNG project, after completing the FEED phase, Yokogawa would proceed to deliver its Centum VP integrated production control system and ProSafe-RS safety instrumentation system as the project’s main automation contractor.
In this role, Yokogawa would also propose various other solutions with the aim of ensuring the safe and stable operation of the plant.
