AG&P project director Roeland Uytdewilligen said: “It has been a privilege to work in close coordination with CB&I Storage Solutions on the unique design of the first full containment steel LNG tank.

“They continue to be our preferred partner for the development of the second LNG storage tank for our PLNG facility, the first LNG import and regasification terminal in the Philippines.”

CB&I plans to complete mechanical work on the LNG bullet in the first quarter of 2022 while the second tank will be completed in the second quarter of 2024.

Currently under construction, the PLNG will have an initial capacity of up to three million tonnes per annum (MTPA) of regasified LNG.

It will also have a scalable onshore regasification capacity of 420 million standard cubic feet per day of gas and almost 200,000m³ of storage.
