As the LNG industry has matured, there is often an inclination to compare the successes and challenges among projects over time. Many publications have fallen into the habit of using a specific cost term of “dollars (USD) per ton of annual LNG production” as an indicator for comparing the engineering and execution skills of owners, licensors and contractors.
This dollar per annual ton benchmark, commonly abbreviated as “dollars per ton” is highly dependent on site specific factors. These factors include the remote nature of the site, local content requirements, design criteria, marine conditions, design practices, and scope differences.
