Under the EPC contract, Drydocks World will carry out the conversion of Floating Storage Units (FSU) to support LNG export operations, alongside the construction of new-build FLNG barges incorporating advanced US based pre-treatment and liquefaction technologies. The scope includes delivering the world's largest FLNG facility, with a production capacity more than 4.2 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) and integrating process modules and systems to enable high-capacity, continuous, reliable and safe LNG production.
The FLNG facility will be fabricated at Drydocks World's state-of-the-art yard in Dubai, leveraging its proven capabilities in delivering mega-scale offshore and LNG infrastructure projects. The FLNG solution enables simultaneous offshore fabrication and onshore preparation, accelerating time to market, reducing environmental impact, and delivering higher quality and cost efficiency than traditional onshore LNG plants.
"This EPC award represents a pivotal milestone for AMIGO LNG," said Dr. Muthu Chezhian, CEO of LNG Alliance. "By partnering with Drydocks World on the world's largest FLNG facility, we are securing best-in-class quality, exceptional production capacity, and reliable long-term performance of this critical asset. We are also harnessing the key advantages of FLNG solutions — from faster project schedules to rigorous testing and seamless pre-commissioning in a controlled fabrication yard environment, as well as the substantial environmental benefits this approach delivers."
Capt. Rado Antolovic, PhD, CEO, Drydocks World, said "With a proven track record in complex offshore conversions and large-scale fabrications, Drydocks World is well-positioned to deliver this landmark facility to the highest international standards. By leveraging our shipyard's expertise and global partnerships, we are not only setting new benchmarks in delivering advanced floating LNG solutions but also reinforcing Dubai's position as a hub for advanced maritime and offshore energy engineering."
By combining new-build FLNG technology with the FSU conversion, and sourcing feed gas from the prolific US Permian Basin, the AMIGO LNG terminal in Guaymas will be one of the world's most innovative and strategically positioned export facilities, supplying competitive LNG to Asia and Latin America.
