Offshore Gas Liquification Plant, Djibouti

Poly-GCL is making a strategic push into FLNG in Djibouti, aiming to become the lowest-cost seller of the complex floating plants.
Developed by POLY-GCL Petroleum Group (a joint venture between China Poly Group and GCL Group), this $4 billion floating LNG facility is located at Damerjog Port, Djibouti, near the Somali border. It represents a cornerstone of the Ethiopia-Djibouti Natural Gas Project, designed to liquefy and export gas from Ethiopia's Ogaden Basin.
 
The initial phase of the project is to build a LNG plant with capacity of about 3MTPA, and reserve a provision (land and tie-in points) for future expansion (Phase II and Phase III), to reach a total (all three phases) LNG productivity of 10MTPA.
 
HalcrowSea has provided independent design review and technical assessment on FEED/POST-FEED of onshore and nearshore LNG plant, made comparison study, key process simulation analysis, economics analysis, CAPEX & OPEX analysis etc. 
We also provided other related owner's engineer services and FEED for marine works including navigation routes selection, navigation channel design, overall layout design, tug design, mooring arrangement, jetty design, trestle design, causeway design, 2D navigation study, cost estimates, construction schedule, related specifications.
 
The plant features an initial capacity of 3 million tons per annum (MTPA), expandable to 10 MTPA, with storage and export infrastructure capable of handling LNG carriers up to 267,000 cubic meters. Feed gas is transported via an 803-kilometer pipeline from the Calub and Hilala fields, with a short-term capacity of 4 billion cubic meters per year. The LNG plant includes all process units, LNG transmission system, utilities and auxiliary facilities, including seawater desalination system, production and administration buildings, power station and firefighting facilities, etc.
