Novatek’s subsidiary Arctic LNG 2 has signed a contract with Siemens on compressor equipment for three liquefaction trains of the Arctic LNG 2 project.
According to Novatek, the scope of supply under the contract includes three feed gas compressors and six boil-off gas compressors. The document also provides for localizing the equipment fabrication for the Project’s third train in Russia.
“Siemens and Nivatek have a successful working relationship as they supplied gas turbine generators and boil-off gas compressors for our Yamal LNG plant.” noted Alexander Fridman, First Deputy Chairman of the Novatek Management Board. “Our next project, Arctic LNG 2, will utilize new technological solutions and employ domestic manufacturers. The supply contract envisages new prospects for localizing the compressor equipment fabrication for the LNG industry, which is consistent with our strategic aim of creating and developing an LNG Center of Excellence in Russia.”
End of 2018, Arctic LNG 2 signed a contract worth some 500 mn euro for the supply of gas turbine compressors and gas turbine generators with Nuovo Pignone and a contract for the design and construction of gravity-based structures with a joint venture between Renaissance Heavy Industries Russia (RHI Russia B.V.) and SAIPEM S.p.A.
