Mozambique LNG Port - A Catalyst for Prosperidade
Mozambique Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is planning a LNG facility in the Palma area of Cabo Delgado province. The initial plan for the facility includes four, 5-million-tonne-per-annum (mtpa) liquefaction trains. The facility can be expanded to include multiple additional trains capable of producing approximately 50 mmtpa in future years. This paper provides an overview of the Pre-Front End Engineering Design (Pre-FEED) Phase level of work completed during 2012 to support an LNG site location for which very little information was available regarding metocean conditions, bathymetry, and geotechnical conditions. The initial work included formal site selection of a location for the development of an onshore LNG plant with marine facilities, as well as hydrodynamic modeling of Palma Bay, developing a marine facilities layout, and completing various engineering studies to support overall project development.
