The upcoming liquefaction unit will be the biggest in the world to utilise a single electric motor-driven mixed refrigerant compressor, the company claimed.

This compressor will facilitate the production of low-carbon LNG, which will be supplied to the Chinese market for both residential and industrial applications.

“This project demonstrates how we are helping customers to optimise their facility’s overall performance with safe, sustainable solutions to achieve both production and environmental goals.”
