BEIJING: China National Offshore Oil Corp (CNOOC), the nation’s top offshore oil and gas driller, has delivered its last two modules constructed in Qingdao, East China’s Shandong province, and built for Shell-led LNG Canada, which marks the completion of the project of 35 process modules, the company said.
CNOOC attributed the completion of the process modules to the use of integrated construction solutions, which is a rare case globally. The modules will be shipped to the project site in British Columbia, Canada, for on-site installation, it said.
The success of the construction illustrates that the country’s technical capability in integrated joint construction of a supersized liquified natural gas modular plant ranks tops in the world, it said.
Each module is 37m tall and weighs 5,465 tonnes. It is mainly responsible for the pre-treatment of raw material gas, said the company.
According to CNOOC, the first phase of the project includes building two liquefaction trains with a capacity of 14 million tonnes per year. When completed and put into operation, it will supply high-quality clean energy to Asia.
Zhuang Hongchang, the project manager with CNOOC, said the company is responsible for building 35 process modules for the project, including 19 core modules. — China Daily/ANN
