GLP Plant has been awarded the contract by Tas Gas Networks to design and build the gas supply pipeline infrastructure between the Tasmanian Gas Pipeline (TGP) and the BOC Micro-LNG Plant being built at Westbury in Tasmania.

The BOC Micro-LNG Plant will have the capacity to provide 50 tonnes per day of LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) to the heavy transport sector. This is the equivalent of 70,000 litres a day of conventional diesel, and is also being designed, built and commissioned by GLP Plant.

Peter Ramsey, Managing Director of GLP Plant said, “We are proud to have been selected by Tas Gas Networks for this work. It validates the time and effort we have invested in building world-class expertise in the small LNG plant market.”

The plant is expected to be fully operational mid 2010.

The GLP Group was selected after undergoing an approval process of more than 12 months demonstrating its high level of engineering excellence in innovative design and construction in modular style plants.

This Micro–LNG Plant involves the combination of technologies from both Linde–BOC and GLP which will produce the equivalent of 70,000 litres of Liquid Natural Gas as a cleaner, more economical fuel alternative for the heavy transport industry in Tasmania.

With final design, hazops and procurement of major equipment now complete, work on site will soon progress.

Construction on-site will begin in either late September or early October 2009.

A 25-30 metre offtake from the Tasmania Gas Pipeline will be included in the micro-LNG plant, which will process the gas and store LNG at the facility. LNG will be distributed throughout Tasmania to fuel the transportation industry.

The LNG plant will have the capacity to produce 50 t/d (the equivalent of 70,000 litres of conventional diesel).

The plant is expected to come online in late May or early June 2010.

The objective of the COSPL project is to demonstrate a complete and integrated process of oxyfuel combustion within a National Electricity Market. The plant is a demonstration of greenhouse gas elimination and clean fuel technology. The old Callide A power station near Gladstone in Queensland, AUSTRALIA is being refurbished for this purpose.

GLP will complete assembly of two air separation plants, total Oxygen separation capacity 660 tonne/day, supplied from France including design and installation of civil, tie-in piping and electrical work.

GLP will also design and erect a 100 tonne/day CO2 liquefaction plant to enable liquid geosequestration – safe long-term underground storage of liquid CO2 in spent oil and gas wells and coal seams.

Project scheduled for completion February 2011.
