Customer Challenges
Integrating new and proven technologies and improving HSE performance
| The scope of investment has expanded beyond conventional megaprojects to include small-scale projects and offshore facilities. For such undertakings, new and proven technologies must be integrated and improvements must be attained in health, safety, and environment (HSE) performance. |
Responding quickly and accurately to shifts in demand
| The main challenge in the LNG supply chain is responding rapidly and accurately to shifts in demand. This is required both by regulations and contractual committments to customers. Before any LNG facility enters commercial operation, it is important to identify essential plant KPIs and establish standardized procedures for manual interventions. |
Dealing with variations in gas composition
| Gas from different fields often varies in composition, and this variance is expected to increase over the next few decades. Consequently, receiving terminals will need to apply best practicies and the impact of such variation will have to be dealt with throughout the plant lifecycle. |
