Modular gas processing units will treat 1.6 billion ft3 per day of natural gas for liquefaction.
Honeywell has announced that Venture Global LNG Inc. will use a series of technologies from Honeywell UOP to remove various contaminants from natural gas prior to liquefaction at its Calcasieu Pass LNG export facility in Cameron Parish, Louisiana, US.
Honeywell UOP will provide engineering, procurement and fabrication services for the complex which, when completed, will produce 10 million tpy of LNG for export to markets in Asia, Europe and other locations.
The project will include a Honeywell UOP Mercury Removal Unit (MRU) and three separate trains each consisting of an Acid Gas Removal Unit (AGRU) and molecular sieve dehydration unit. Taken together, these modular units will remove water, mercury, carbon dioxide and sulfur from 1.6 billion ft3 per day of natural gas so it can be liquefied and safely transported to customers on ocean-going vessels.
