Angola LNG/LPG Marine Terminal Study<br />

Great Lakes Offshore Wind<br />

Client: KBR<br />

Owner: CABOG/Angola LNG<br />

Location<br />

Kw<strong>and</strong>a Base, Soyo, Angola<br />

<strong>Moffatt</strong> & <strong>Nichol</strong> developed the conceptual design of the marine facilities for an LNG <strong>and</strong> LPG/Condensate receiving<br />

terminal at Kw<strong>and</strong>a Base near Soyo, Angola. The firm provided FEED-level design of the marine facilities <strong>and</strong> construction<br />

dock, development of metocean criteria <strong>and</strong> design basis, <strong>and</strong> cost <strong>and</strong> schedule estimates. The marine facilities<br />

comprised two berths, one for LNG <strong>and</strong> one for LPG/Condensate, both of which accommodated 205,000 m³ LNG<br />

carriers. A combination roadway-<strong>and</strong>-pipeway trestle connected the l<strong>and</strong>side facility with the larger loading platform,<br />

<strong>and</strong> a catwalk provided access to the smaller loading platform.<br />

Location<br />

Great Lakes Area, United States<br />

<strong>Moffatt</strong> & <strong>Nichol</strong> provided engineering services for the conceptual design of an offshore wind installation on the<br />

Great Lakes. The firm performed a study of substructure alternatives that factored in the challenging geotechnical <strong>and</strong><br />

ice loading conditions in the area. The study also considered local fabrication drivers when outlining design options.<br />

<strong>Moffatt</strong> & <strong>Nichol</strong> then prepared a capital expenditures (CAPEX) estimate report that provided cost estimates for three<br />

turbine options, identified project uncertainties <strong>and</strong> steps for reducing them, <strong>and</strong> calculated economic development<br />

impacts on New York. A detailed schedule for all aspects of the project through construction was also developed.<br />
