The shale gas revolution in the late 2000s marked a turning point in the U.S. oil and gas industry. For Freeport LNG, it meant taking their business in a new direction: transforming an import terminal into a natural gas liquefaction and liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facility.
As part of this journey in 2015 the operator selected GE Digital Asset Performance Management as its mechanical integrity platform and enlisted Stork, a Flour company, for the functional role out of the program. This included the development of risk based inspection strategies, the implementation of all initial wall thickness measurements (TMLs) on fixed equipment and continued inspection services as the plant came online. All of these components were implemented in the pre-commissioning phase to establish an “optimized” mechanical Integrity program before first gas.
