CB&I, Zachry venture wins FEED work for Freeport liquefaction project in Texas
Freeport LNG Expansion and a joint venture comprised of Zachry Industrial and CB&I entered into a front-end engineering and design (FEED) contract for the Freeport liquefaction project near Freeport, Texas.
The Zachry/CB&I venture will engineer and design three LNG liquefaction trains (each rated at 4.4 million tpy) and corresponding pretreatment facilities to be located near the existing Freeport LNG regasification terminal that is owned by Freeport LNG’s parent company, Freeport LNG Development.
Within the three-train design, the Zachry/CB&I venture will develop a fixed price/fixed schedule proposal for both a one-train initial development and a two-train initial development, the companies said.
This optionality will provide Freeport LNG with the ability to choose the optimum size of the initial phase of the project based upon customer demand and financing considerations, officials said.
In addition, the design of the three-train project will allow for the efficient expansion of additional liquefaction train(s) and pretreatment facilities after the initial development has commenced, according to project officials.
