Air Products technology for Freeport LNG

Air Products signed an agreement to provide two sets of its proprietary LNG technology, equipment, and process license for Freeport LNG’s liquefaction and export project.

The sale includes two of Air Products’ main cryogenic coil wound heat exchangers and the associated equipment and technology which will be vital in the production of LNG at the facility. The trains are scheduled to be on-stream in 2018.

Air Products will supply its LNG proprietary C3MRTM liquefaction technology and equipment, and its MCR® Main Cryogenic Heat Exchanger will be installed at the heart of the propane pre-cooled mixed refrigerant liquefaction process.

In addition to the Freeport, Texas site, Air Products is also providing the LNG technology and equipment for Dominion’s liquefaction project at its Cove Point LNG facility at Lusby, Maryland.
