HOUSTON – Delfin Midstream Inc. says that it has entered into a design and engineering contract with Wison Offshore & Marine to develop FLNG vessels for use in the Gulf of Mexico.
Delfin says that the agreement will help it construct new FLNG vessels, and thereby accelerate the development of the remaining FLNG vessel slots at the Delfin LNG Deepwater Port project.
Commenting on the announcement Wouter Pastoor, COO of Delfin, said that Wison’s goal is to continue into a full FEED later this year so that FLNG vessel construction can start at their shipyard in mid-2024.
Delfin has been working to advance the Delfin LNG Deepwater Port project, which will be designed to support four FLNG vessels with a combined export capacity of up to 13.3 million tons per annum. Delfin says that it has secured commercial agreements for LNG sales and liquefaction services, and is in the final phase towards FID on its first two FLNG vessels.
