Apr 27, 2020
Venture Global LNG announce today the successful raising of the first LNG storage tank roof at the company’s Calcasieu Pass LNG export facility in Cameron Parish, Louisiana. The 10 MTPA Venture Global Calcasieu Pass facility is under construction at the intersection of the Calcasieu Ship Channel and the Gulf of Mexico.
The 1.8-million-pound tank dome and assembly were air raised into place on Friday, April 24th, 2020. The project milestone was completed on schedule and comes eight months after the project’s final investment decision.
Venture Global also announced the facility’s marine perimeter wall and levee are now complete securing the site. With the site now fully protected the focus turns to the arrival and installation of the project’s modular equipment. The first piperack modules arrived at the site and were successfully installed in April, and equipment for the project’s 720 MW combined cycle gas turbine power plant is scheduled to begin arriving next month.
