KBR and ConocoPhillips collaborate on New Mid-Scale Solutions

KBR and ConocoPhillips will work together to develop a standardized LNG train that will provide mid-scale capacity for both greenfield and brownfield expansions to reduce costs and expedite facility installations.

The companies will complete a front-end engineering and design (FEED) quality reference design for a mid-scale capacity LNG train (1.5 – 3.0 MTPA) suitable for a wide range of feed gas and ambient temperature conditions. The approach utilizes ConocoPhillips’ proven Optimized Cascade® process technology and modular construction and is expected to be available starting in 2019.

“KBR and ConocoPhillips both have a well-established and respected history in LNG,” said Farhan Mujib, KBR President, Hydrocarbons Services Americas. The parties will also continue to cooperate on large scale LNG trains utilizing similar methodology and technology.
