Key Applications For an <strong>LNG</strong> FPSO<br />
Small stranded offshore<br />
non-associated gas fields<br />
Associated gas projects<br />
Onshore gas fields<br />
<br />
Provide a feasible<br />
development concept for<br />
small stranded offshore gas<br />
fields with 1-2 tcf of<br />
reserves<br />
<br />
Provide a viable alternative<br />
for large scale associated<br />
gas flaring or reinjection<br />
projects (eg in West Africa,<br />
Gulf of Mexico)<br />
<br />
Offer a cheaper, quicker,<br />
and less complex solution<br />
for onshore gas fields (e.g.<br />
Papua New Guinea, CBM<br />
projects in Australia)<br />
Pipeline gas<br />
<br />
Locate <strong>LNG</strong> FPSO alongside<br />
a jetty. Liquefy gas taken<br />
from existing pipeline<br />
infrastructure (e.g. the<br />
domestic pipeline grid)<br />
Early production/cash flow<br />
Large gas field – staged<br />
developments<br />
Deepwater gas fields/long<br />
tie-back distances<br />
<br />
<br />
Provide an early production<br />
system for large offshore<br />
gas fields<br />
Lead time to first cash flow<br />
can typically be cut by 50%<br />
<br />
Accelerate production and<br />
provide lower production<br />
cost per ton for large<br />
developed gas fields that<br />
have liquefaction capacity<br />
constraints<br />
<br />
Reduce CAPEX for<br />
deepwater offshore gas<br />
fields and longer tieback<br />
distances<br />
