Qatargas II: full supply chain overview.

Author(s) : THOMPSON G. R., ADAMS J. B., HAMMADY A. al, et al.

Summary

The Qatargas II LNG Project is an exciting, 'full supply chain' joint venture, conceived by Qatar Petroleum (70%) and ExxonMobil (30%), which will set new standards for scale and economy of LNG production. The project will expand the existing Qatargas LNG facility at Ras Laffan, Qatar with the addition of two LNG trains, significantly larger than any previously built. Each train will have an LNG production capacity of approximately 7.8 million tonnes/yr. Feed gas will come from the North Field, which is the largest non-associated gas field in the world. The onshore plant will extract LPGs (propane and butane), which will be fractionated, stored and exported from Ras Laffan. Lean LNG production is targeted for the United Kingdom market, using new, larger LNG transportation ships. A new receiving terminal in the UK will regasify the LNG and send out sales gas into the UK national gas transmission system.
