石油设备网讯 据Oil & Gas Journal网站4月18日休斯顿报道 Sempra能源子公司阿瑟港液化天然气有限公司获得了美联邦能源监管委员会（FERC）的授权，该项目旨在德克萨斯州杰斐逊县开发由Sempra领导的阿瑟港液化天然气出口设施的选址、建设和运营，此次授权使该项目接近最终投资决策。
该液化出口设施拟包括两条每年处理1100万吨液化天然气的天然气液化生产线、最多三个液化天然气储罐以及两个海运泊位和相关设施。
联邦能源监管委员会的授权还批准了德克萨斯和路易斯安那连接管道项目的建设，该项目将为新的液化设施提供天然气运输。
2018年12月，阿瑟港液化天然气公司与波兰石油天然气公司签署了阿瑟港液化天然气项目（OGJ，2018年12月19日报道）20年期200万吨/年液化天然气销售和购买协议。今年早些时候，在达成最终协议的前提下，美国柏克德公司被选为该设施的工程、采购、施工和调试承包商。

Port Arthur LNG moves closer to FID with FERC authorization
Port Arthur LNG LLC, a subsidiary of Sempra Energy, received authorization from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to site, construct, and operate the Sempra-led Port Arthur LNG liquefaction-export facility under development in Jefferson County, Tex., moving the project closer to a final investment decision.
The liquefaction-export facility is proposed to include two natural gas liquefaction trains capable of processing 11 million tonnes per year of LNG; up to three LNG storage tanks; two marine berths, and associated facilities.
The FERC order also approved the construction of the Texas and Louisiana connector pipeline projects that will provide natural gas transportation for the new liquefaction facilities.
In December 2018, Port Arthur LNG and the Polish Oil & Gas Company (PGNiG) signed a definitive 20-year sale-and-purchase agreement for 2 million tpy of LNG from the Port Arthur LNG project (OGJ Online, Dec. 19, 2018). Earlier in the year, Bechtel was selected to serve as the engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning contractor for the facility, subject to reaching a definitive agreement.
