Honeywell, Technip Energies Partner on LNG Solutions for Commonwealth LNG Facility – America

Honeywell, recently, has signed an agreement with Technip Energies to deliver integrated Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) pretreatment and liquefaction solutions for Commonwealth LNG’s planned export facility in Cameron Parish, Louisiana. The project is part of the Caturus platform and is designed to meet rising global energy demand through faster, safer and more efficient LNG production.

Under the agreement, Honeywell’s modular LNG technology will help Commonwealth LNG accelerate project timelines, simplify execution, reduce construction risks and improve overall production efficiency. The facility is expected to produce approximately 9.5 million tonnes per annum of LNG.

John Palamara, Vice President and General Manager of Honeywell’s LNG business, commenting on the partnership said, “Honeywell’s end-to-end LNG solutions and modular delivery models help customers reduce construction timelines, increase speed to market and enhance return on investment. By combining innovative technologies with deep industry expertise, we can optimise every phase of the LNG value chain while supporting global energy security.”

Further, Commonwealth LNG will deploy Honeywell’s single mixed refrigerant liquefaction process technology along with six modularised coil wound heat exchangers (CWHEs). These CWHEs are engineered to deliver high natural gas throughput within a compact footprint, enabling maximum processing capacity while enhancing safety and operational reliability.

Caturus’s Chief Executive Officer, David Lawler, said that the agreement represents a major milestone for the Commonwealth LNG platform. 

He added, “This significant capital investment, alongside our progressing financing process, underscores our commitment to developing this global-scale LNG project. The Commonwealth LNG facility is a critical element of Caturus’ wellhead-to-water strategy and an important step toward building a leading independent integrated natural gas company in the US”

In addition, the project will utilise the company’s UOP SeparSIV pretreatment technology to remove water and heavy hydrocarbons, ensuring compliance with LNG quality specifications. The flexible technology can handle varying feed gas compositions and is capable of reducing lifecycle costs by up to 50 percent compared to conventional pretreatment methods.
