據管道&天然氣雜志網7月13日報道，西門子能源公司周二表示，該公司已被選為加拿大不列顛哥倫比亞省全電力Woodfibre LNG項目的單一解決方案供應商。西門子能源執行副總裁Thorbj?rn Fors，隨著我們繼續尋找天然氣鏈脫碳的方法，液化天然氣將在更可持續的未來發揮關鍵作用。這個項目很重要，因為它將有助于支持全球脫碳之旅，通過出口到目前受煤炭推動的亞洲經濟。

環保的液化天然氣設施將設在以前的紙漿和造紙工廠的地點。其規模將達到每年210萬噸，并利用清潔、可再生的水力發電，將溫室氣體排放量減少80%以上。

西門子能源的業務范圍包括與主要制冷系統相關的所有設備，包括壓縮機、同步電機、變速驅動器、換流變壓器、諧波濾波器和眾多的發電廠。主要的制冷壓縮機組是液化過程的組成部分之一，液化過程中產生的液化天然氣最終將儲存在儲罐中，然后裝載到LNG油輪運往國外。

西門子能源總裁Christine Kennedy表示，Woodfibre LNG項目正在努力將可持續發展的方法納入到項目工程和設計的盡可能多的方面。這包括在LNG制冷過程中使用安全、高效的設備——就像西門子能源公司將要提供的那樣——來建造世界上排放量最低的LNG出口設施。

該項目預計將于2027年實質性完成，并于當年9月開始商業運營。

Siemens Energy to Power Low-Emission LNG Facility in Canada

Siemens Energy has been selected as the single solution supplier for the all-electric Woodfibre LNG project in British Columbia, Canada, the company said on Tuesday.

LNG will play an essential role in a more sustainable future as we continue looking at ways to decarbonize the natural gas chain,” Thorbj?rn Fors, executive vice president at Siemens Energy, said. “This project is important, because it will help support the journey toward global decarbonization with exports to Asian economies currently driven by coal.”

The environmentally friendly LNG facility will be located at the site of a former pulp and paper operation. It will be sized for 2.1 million tonnes per annum and utilize clean, renewable hydroelectricity, reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by more than 80%.

Siemens Energy’s scope includes all equipment associated with the main refrigeration trains, including compressors, synchronous motors, variable speed drives, converter transformers, harmonic filters, and numerous powerhouses. The main refrigeration compressor trains are one of the components of the liquefaction process that produces the LNG that will eventually be stored in tanks and then transported to LNG tankers for shipping abroad.

“Woodfibre LNG is working to incorporate a sustainable approach into as many aspects of our project’s engineering and design as possible,” Siemens Energy’s President Christine Kennedy said. “This includes using safe, efficient equipment for the LNG refrigeration process — like that which Siemens Energy will supply — to build what will become the world’s lowest-emission LNG export facility.

The project is expected to reach substantial completion in 2027 and begin commercial operation by September of that year.
