By GlobalDataThe world’s first project to turn coal seam gas into liquefied natural gas (LNG), the Queensland Curtis LNG will attract investment over $20bn from 2010 – 2014, once it starts producing cleaner hydrocarbon energy for export.
For the Queensland Curtis LNG project, Trelleborg was required to provide a bespoke solution to view environmental conditions through a single interface for onboard operators.
For this purpose, Trelleborg integrated the carry on board laptop data unit with the portable piloting unit (PPU), to allow operators access to all data from the shore side system through one display.
The supply also included an automatic identification system (AIS), which permits the vessel’s pilot or master or marine operations staff to see local vessel traffic within the same display systems.
The company will supply a marine monitoring system along with environmental and MetOcean monitoring systems to the Gladstone LNG project.
The equipment will allow consolidation of data from all sensors and subsystems through one central system.
This will provide operators with a complete view of the local environmental conditions, approach, mooring and de-berthing operations at the Curtis Island terminal.
For the Australia Pacific LNG project, Trelleborg will supply an integrated marine monitoring systems and an industry standard ship-to-shore safety link (SSL), which offers emergency shutdown, communications and data link.
The marine monitoring data repeater software, along with the integrated SSL systems, at Curtis Island sites will provide compatibility for trade with global LNG vessel fleet.
