PERU LNG 2021 Annual Report
ANNUAL REPORT
PERU LNG 2021
Next, the gas is dried in molecular sieves and
passes through an activated charcoal mercury
absorption cell before liquefaction. In the final
stage, the natural gas is cooled with propane
refrigerant and then further cooled and liquefied
in the main cryogenic heat exchanger. The
LNG is then stored before shipment on board
methane tankers in two tanks of 130 000 cubic
meters each.
It should be noted that the plant is self-
sufficient; it produces its own electricity and
other services. It has three generators, one
control centre, offices, warehouses, workshops,
training facilities and housing.
PERU LNG continued natural gas liquefaction
operations in 2021, and in addition to the
restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic
we were forced to carry out unforeseen repairs
to the gas turbines driving the refrigeration
compressors after an unexpected failure. The
repair work was carried out mainly by Peruvian
personnel supervised by representative of the
turbine manufacturers.
