TMC bags compressors order for Swan LNG’s Jafrabad FSRU

TMC Compressors of the Seas (TMC) has signed two contracts to supply a total of five marine compressors to a floating storage regasification unit (FSRU) that Hyundai Heavy Industries is building for Swan Energy. 

TMC has signed a contract directly with Hyundai Heavy Industries to provide 3 service and control air compressors to the South-Korean shipyard, with deliveries scheduled for the third quarter 2018.

In addition, TMC has signed a subcontractor deal with another supplier to provide 2 feed air compressors to a nitrogen system delivery to the FSRU. This compressor delivery will be made in July 2018.

TMC kept the contract values undisclosed.

The FSRU that Hyundai Heavy Industries is building for Swan Energy will have a storage capacity of 180,000 cubic meters with an ultimate gas send out rate of 1000 mmscfd.

The FSRU will be used at Swan Energy’s LNG import terminal in Jafrabad, Gujarat, India. Once completed, the FSRU will be moored to a fixed jetty and regasify imported LNG to enable distribution by pipeline grid and road tanker.

The terminal, with the capacity to handle 5 million tons of LNG per annum, is being set up by Swan Energy’s unit, Swan LNG.
