A continuous supply of natural gas – even in the most challenging environments.
As the leader in floating LNG solutions, our projects are backed by unrivaled industry experience in developing and operating complex LNG solutions worldwide.
Our floating storage and regasification units (FSRUs) act, in all aspects, similar to a land-based terminal. In addition to transporting LNG, our purpose-built FSRUs have the onboard capability to vaporize LNG and deliver natural gas through specially designed offshore and near-shore receiving facilities. Our FSRUs can deliver regasified LNG at pipeline pressure with flow rates ranging from 50,000 MMBTU to more than 750,000 MBTU continuously, providing quick and convenient access to incremental gas supplies.
FSRU Benefits
An integrated and flexible LNG import solution tailored to fit almost any environment.
Cost Effective
In most cases, a floating regasification solution is more cost-effective per MMbtu than a traditional land-based solution.
Time Efficient
A floating solution can be implemented in one to three years versus a land-based terminal, which typically takes four to six years to develop.
Minimal Footprint
A dockside or offshore regasification facility requires less land use than a land-based terminal, further minimizing environmental impacts to the surrounding environment.
Cleaner Solution
FSRUs allow countries to transition away from coal and liquid fuels, bridging the gap of access to cleaner energy.
FSRU 101
FSRUs have the onboard capability to vaporize LNG and deliver natural gas via specially designed receiving facilities. Our FSRUs are flexible, allowing for conventional LNG loading with discharge: as a liquid at a conventional receiving terminal, as gas through a high-pressure gas manifold, or as gas through a subsea buoy system.
Our FSRUs are permanently moored to a docking facility at a location close to a market access point. Depending on the geographic location and environmental conditions, the mooring infrastructure is tailored to fit specific environmental requirements. Geography and ocean conditions largely dictate which solution is the right choice for the project, but we are able to operate in even the most challenging conditions.
We have a range of fully engineered mooring solutions that can be readily tailored to specific opportunities, reducing the time required for front-end engineering design. Our FSRUs are engineered to connect to an existing natural gas distribution network and discharge high-pressure natural gas to shore via pipeline. For dockside application, natural gas is discharged via high-pressure gas offloading arm mounted to a jetty infrastructure. For offshore application, natural gas is discharged through a subsea buoy linked to a subsea pipeline.
