据3月8日世界天然气报道,美国LNG切尼尔能源,出口项目开发商,已与之相关Corpus Christi Stage 3 项目签署了项目、采购和施工 (EPC) 合同。
此外,CCL 第3 阶段允许项目在有限通知的情况下开始项目的早期项目、采购等现场工作 (LNTP)。
Corpus Christi Stage 3扩建项目由多达7条中型生产线组成。每条生产线的液化能力约为每年 149万吨 (mtpa)。因此,总生产能力超过 10吨。因此,该终端的总铭牌容量约为2500万吨/年的液化天然气。
该项目的商业基础是与交易对手签订的长期协议。
切尼尔首席执行官Jack Fusco该公司预计最终投资决定将于2022年夏季进行。
“EPC签订合同和LNTP该项目的发布标志着终确定投资方向迈出了重要一步……我们专注于实现FID其他步骤。CCL 3项目启动时,全球液化天然气市场基本面突出了天然气在全球能源结构中的重要性。
我们期待着从2025年开始Corpus Christi第三阶段为客户提供可靠灵活的液化天然气。

Cheniere and Bechtel ink Corpus Christi Stage 3 EPC contract
U.S. LNG export project developer Cheniere Energy has entered into an engineering,procurement and construction (EPC) contract with LNG project manager Bechtel for its Corpus Christi Stage 3 project.
In addition,CCL Stage 3 has released Bechtel to start early engineering,procurement,and other site work at the project under limited notice to proceed (LNTP).
The Corpus Christi Stage 3 expansion project consists of up to seven midscale trains. Each of the trains will have a liquefaction capacity of approximately 1.49 million tonnes per annum (mtpa). A total production capacity is thus more than 10 mtpa. Therefore,the terminal’s total nominal capacity would amount to approximately 25 mtpa of LNG.
The project is commercially underpinned by long-term agreements with counterparties.
According to Jack Fusco,Cheniere’s CEO,the company expects a Final Investment Decision to occur in summer 2022.
“The signing of this EPC contract and the issuance of LNTP mark important steps towards a FiD on the project... We are focused on the remaining steps required in order to reach FID,” he said. “The CCL 3 commences as global LNG market fundamentals highlight the criticality of natural gas in the global energy mix.”
“We look forward to providing our customers with reliable and flexible LNG from the Corpus Christi Stage III Project starting in 2025.”
