Cryogenic BOG
Siemens Gas and Power has secured a contract for the supply of three cryogenic boil-off gas (BOG) compressor trains for the Golden Pass LNG export terminal.
About the contract
The contract was awarded by CCZ JV, a joint venture between Chiyoda International Corporation, McDermott International, and Zachry Group.
- The export facility in Sabine Pass, Texas, USA, is a joint venture between units of Qatar Petroleum and ExxonMobil.
- It will be integrated into the existing Golden Pass LNG import terminal, Siemens noted.

- Each train will have a nominal output of approximately 5.2 million metric tons per annum (MTPA).
Siemens Gas and Power’s scope of supply covers:
- the engineering,
- manufacturing, and
- testing of the three, single-shaft centrifugal BOG compression packages.
The company will also deliver installation and commissioning activities.
Compressor package details
Each of the compressor packages will be driven by a 6.8-megawatt (MW) electric motor. Manufacturing, testing, and packaging will take place in Duisburg, Germany.
Steam turbine generator sets
The project scope also includes a frame agreement to supply:
- all low-voltage electric motors and electric variable speed drives (1 – 200 horsepower) and
- all medium-voltage (250 – 1,500 horsepower) electric motors.
