Gas transportation at the LNG export facility The facility will also feature a 720MW natural gas-fired combined-cycle gas turbine electric generation facility. The marine terminal will accommodate carriers up to 185,000m³ in capacity. The LNG will be loaded onto carriers, docking at one of two LNG berthing docks in a common recessed berthing area. LNG will be stored in two 200,000m³ full-containment tanks at the Calcasieu Pass facility. Infrastructure facilities at the terminal The blocks will include refrigerant storage vessels and distribution piping between the refrigerant storage site and liquefaction blocks. The LNG facility will comprise nine pre-cooled single mixed refrigerant blocks, each with a nameplate liquefaction capacity of 1.2Mtpa. The liquefaction system will include 18 mid-scale modular trains driven by electric motors to optimise efficiency and reliability. The export terminal will incorporate modular LNG liquefaction technology consisting of two trains of natural gas liquefaction. The facility will cover 930 acres and have deepwater access.
The location is in close proximity to abundant gas supplies and transport facilities. The Calcasieu Pass facility is being developed south of Lake Charles on the Calcasieu Ship Channel near the Gulf of Mexico. Calcasieu Pass LNG export facility details The facility is due to come online in 2022. The construction activities at the project site began in February 2019 and are estimated to create around 1,500 construction jobs and 130 operational jobs. In October 2018, the project received federal approval, and in August 2019, its final investment decision was made. In June 2018, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) issued its Notice of Availability of the draft environmental impact statement for the proposed facility and TransCameron pipeline. Peak capacity is estimated to be 620bcf a year (12Mtpa). The LNG export facility will store around 516 billion cubic feet (bcf) of natural gas a year, equivalent to ten million tonnes per annum (Mtpa). The project includes the construction of a 42in-wide, 23.4-mile (37.66km) pipeline called TransCameron, which will connect the facility to interconnection points around the Grand Chenier Station. The Calcasieu Pass liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facility in Cameron Parish, Louisiana, US, is being developed by Venture Global Calcasieu Pass, a subsidiary of US-based LNG production company Venture Global LNG. The installation of the first liquefaction train commenced in June 2020. The Calcasieu Pass export terminal will incorporate modular LNG liquefaction technology comprising two trains of natural gas liquefaction.
