Chart Industries, the US maker of LNG and industrial gases equipment for the energy transition, has just been awarded four liquefaction project orders from four different customers.
Chart said the orders for the smaller scale sector were worth more than $120 million.
Additionally, the Atlanta, Georgia-based company has received releases on engineering work, amounting to limited notice to proceed, on two of the “Big LNG” export plant projects which are expected to proceed to final investment decision in 2022.
Highlights of the four liquefaction project awards include a hydrogen liquefier.
The 15-ton-per-day liquefier will be built in North America with a new hydrogen liquefaction customer.
“This is our fourth hydrogen-helium liquefaction order of the year in 2021 and with those four orders totalling approximately $150M, covering three different geographies and three different customers,” Chart explained.

The orders also include a 60,000-ton BioLNG liquefaction train and associated equipment.
Chart added that the third order is for a BioLNG facility and associated station infrastructure for 20 BioLNG stations with an established European customer, Verbio.
The fourth order is for a utility-scale LNG liquefaction plant which is an integrated facility and the first in the nation with a hybrid (gas-electric) drive and for a customer in the Northeast US.
Chart added that this customer plans to utilize both natural gas and renewable natural gas (RNG) in this long-duration energy storage solution meeting reliability and environmental targets.
“We are pleased that our hydrogen and LNG liquefaction process technology and equipment capabilities are recognized and utilized globally and across industries,” stated Jill Evanko, Chart’s Chief Executive and President.
“We view this past week’s awards and overall continued broad-based demand as strong indicators that the energy transition is accelerating,” added Evanko.
“These orders give further support to our previously announced 2022 outlook,” stated the CEO.
