QatarEnergy awards Air Products heat exchanger contract for North Field East

QatarEnergy has awarded Air Products Inc. a contract to supply four end-flash coil-wound heat exchangers (CWHE) for North Field East LNG project in Ras Laffan Industrial City, Qatar. One end-flash CWHE will be used with each of the four 8-million tonne/year AP-X LNG process trains Air Products is building for Chiyoda Corp. and Technip Energies, who are constructing the project’s LNG plant.

The Chiyoda-Technip joint venture last year won the engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning contract for North Field East’s onshore infrastructure (OGJ Online, Feb. 8, 2021). Start-up of the first North Field East LNG train is planned for end 2025.

Air Products has supplied the 14 LNG trains already operating at Ras Laffan.

QatarEnergy earlier this month let McDermott a front-end engineering and design contract for North Field South offshore pipelines and power power cables (OGJ Online, Aug. 10, 2022).
