March 9 (LNGJ) - Freeport LNG Development said it received regulatory approvals from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration to restart Train 1, the final required re-start at Freeport’s three-Train liquefaction facility at Quintana Island in Texas. “Freeport LNG's Trains 2 & 3 returned to full commercial operation in recent weeks, reaching production levels in excess of 1.5 billion cubic feet per day,” said the company.
“As the recommissioning of Freeport's liquefaction facility continues and Trains are restarted, changes in feed-gas flows and production rates are to be anticipated, given the duration of the plant's outage. As previously stated, a conservative ramp-up profile to establish full three-Train production is anticipated to occur over the next few weeks,” Freeport stated.
