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 />
