Jereh Group has successfully finished China’s first shale gas liquefaction plant in Sichuan.
Currently, the plant has a production capacity of 2.4mn ft3/d of LNG, while the second phase, which is due to begin before the end of Jaunary, will increase that figure to with capability up to 10.59mn ft3/d.
The plant is located at Junlian County in Sichuan Province, the shale gas area in China, covering an area of 718 000ft2.
“We believe this project will drive Jereh to step out for more LNG projects worldwide. Jereh modularised [the] mini LNG project with production size from 200 000 to 11 200 000 ft3/d, [which] ensures onsite quick construction and better cost advantage,” said Mr. Yang Zhiguo, Jereh general manager.
“For example, In Southeast Asia, the LNG development focuses on small, mid-scale LNG projects especially in Indonesia as it has small untapped stranded gas resources.
“Transmission infrastructure or LNG liquefaction projects to ship the gas to regasification terminals will be an expansion.”
The government office praised Jereh’s work, pointing out that it had cut the usual construction period in half, with the work taking just six months.
