Small-Mid Scale LNG

The advantages of Small-Mid Scale LNG for the customer are lower investment costs, reduced risk and ease of securing energy off-takers in remote areas with no pipelines. Chiyoda’s extensive global LNG plant execution experience supports clients to optimize solutions using Small-Mid Scale LNG with ‘3+1 Benefits’.

Capabilities

Small-Mid Scale LNG adds value for clients with 3 concepts.

Fast Production

The engineering, procurement and construction phases of LNG projects may span years before LNG production is achieved. The shortest possible duration between project inception and completion is essential for customer Return on Investment (ROI) and Small-Mid Scale LNG delivers faster LNG production, shortening payback periods and improving investor returns.

Lower Investment Cost

Small-Mid Scale LNG requires lower capital expenditure (CAPEX) and operational expenditure (OPEX) compared to large scale LNG projects, providing opportunities for new investors in the small to medium scale LNG market through optimized design methodologies, increased project viability and reduced initial investment costs.
