Yokogawa Electric Corporation has announced that it has been awarded a contract by Yamgaz to supply integrated control and safety systems (ICSS). The systems are for the Yamal LNG Project to build a liquefied natural gas plant and other facilities at Sabetta on Russia’s Yamal Peninsula, above the Arctic Circle.
The Yamal LNG Project is one of Russia’s largest resource projects. As part of this project, a major integrated complex for the liquefaction of natural gas will be built that will have a design production capacity of 16 million tons per annum. The three process trains that will make up this complex will have an annual production output of 5,5 million tons each, and are planned to be commissioned in 2016, 2017, and 2018, respectively.
For this project, Yokogawa will supply Centum VP integrated production control systems, ProSafe-RS safety instrumented systems, Exaquantum plant information management systems, PRM integrated device management packages for the monitoring and diagnosis of plant equipment, analytical systems, analyser shelters and operator training systems. Yokogawa will be responsible for delivery, engineering, installation, commissioning, and operator training. It is estimated that this will be Yokogawa’s largest order ever for a natural gas project in Russia.
