In the region of Guaymas, Sonora, an energy project of international scope is being consolidated. The AMIGO LNG terminal will integrate modular pretreatment technology and automation solutions developed by Honeywell to improve the technical performance of its operations and guarantee the quality of its liquefied natural gas. liquefied natural gas to be exported starting in 2028.
Technological integration for total control
The plant will be equipped with Honeywell’s suite of Integrated Control and Safety Systems (ICSS) and the Experion® system, which will allow centralized monitoring and operation of the facility.
This advanced automation infrastructure is designed to respond to hazardous conditions, prevent incidents and improve process efficiency. In addition, a real-time gas and fire detection and monitoring system is included.
Modular pretreatment and expansion flexibility
One of the main innovations is the use of modular technology for natural gas pretreatment. This solution removes impurities prior to liquefaction. liquefactionThis solution removes impurities before liquefaction, which prolongs the life of the equipment and reduces the need for corrective maintenance.
As a modular platform, it facilitates installation, shortens lead times and enables future expansion without major interruptions in operation.
AMIGO LNG and the Sonora Plan
The project is being developed under the framework of Plan Sonora, a strategy that seeks to position the state as a key node in the international trade of clean energy. clean energy.
The plant AMIGO LNGthe result of an alliance between Epcilon LNG (Texas) and LNG Alliance (Singapore), will be ready to export up to 7.8 million metric tons per year (MTPA) of LNG, reinforcing Mexico’s role in global markets.
Honeywell strengthens its global presence
With experience in the pretreatment of approximately 40% of the world’s LNG and the automation of more than 80 liquefaction trainsHoneywell consolidates its position as an integral supplier in the energy sector.
Its participation in the development of the AMIGO LNG plant underscores its commitment to operational efficiency, the transition to cleaner fuels and regional energy security.
