Plaquemines Facility Project Overview
- An approximately 630-acre site with 1.3 miles of deep-water frontage
-
Thirty-six 0.626 MTPA liquefaction trains, configured in eighteen blocks
- Six pre-treatment trains
- Three ship loading berths, each designed to accommodate LNG vessels carrying a capacity of up to 200,000 cubic meters
- Four 200,000 cubic meter full containment LNG storage tanks
-
Two 720 MW(peak) combined cycle gas turbine power plants, including additional 25 MW gas-firedaeroderivative turbines
- A utility dock on the Mississippi River to handle waterborne deliveries of equipment and material during both construction and project operations.
-
Two 42-inch diameter pipelines, 15 and 12 miles long respectively, that connect to existing interstate naturalgas pipelines
Basis of Design
- The project is based on mid-scale, factory-built liquefaction technology which will consist of two electrically-driven 0.626 MTPA trains in each block, with eighteen blocks for the entire facility
- The gas will flow through six gas pre-treatment trains for pretreatment before it enters the liquefaction trains. Each gas pre-treatment train is designed to support approximately 25% of the gas pretreatment needs of the project
- The LNG will be stored in four 200,000 cubic meter full containment storage tanks. This ample storage capacity allows Venture Global to optimize the plant output
