Qatar Petroleum and Exxon Mobil Corporation has announced the completion and start-up of Qatargas 2 Train 5, one of the largest operating liquefied natural gas (LNG) production facilities in the world.
This follows the start-up of the Qatargas 2 Train 4 in the second quarter of 2009. Each is designed with the capacity to produce 7.8 million tons per year, approximately 50% larger than any other global liquefaction facility currently operating outside of Qatar.
"The start-up of Qatargas 2 Train 5 represents another technological milestone in our effort to increase global supplies of clean-burning natural gas,” said Neil Duffin, president of ExxonMobil Development Company.
