The novel design discussed here for a fast-track, cost-effective LNG import terminal possesses the following characteristics: Capacity of 500 MMscfd (million standard cubic feet per day) of natural gas sendout, proven equipment, known technology, high availability, and ability to deal with a wide range of LNG compositions. This solution includes an floating storage unit (FSU) that allows for a reduction in execution time, compared with the construction of onshore LNG tanks. The FSU option is compared to a floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU). FSRUs tend to be less economic compared to traditional onshore regasificaction terminals, due in part to the high vessel leasing costs. An LNG regasification terminal concept has been developed that features a more competitive execution schedule than those offered by major FSRU providers, along with a significantly lower capital cost. Civil works, if caissons are used, are not an issue in terms of schedule. Caissons can be designed and constructed in significantly less time than that required for the equipment delivery. Caissons can be towed far away from the pre-cast yard, providing a high level of flexibility in identifying the best yard location. Process skids can also be loaded on top of caissons for transportation. Construction execution is based on proven methods, similar to any other offshore upstream facility.
