This performance is achieved through liquefaction mega-modules and a compact industrial architecture that reduces both the physical footprint of the project and its associated risks. <\/p>\n\n<p>Located in Cameron Parish, a few kilometers from the Gulf of Mexico, the site <strong>was selected for its proximity to gas supply<\/strong>. Phase 1 of the project considers three liquefaction trains with a capacity of 5.2 million metric tons per annum (MTPA) each, representing an initial production of 15.6 MTPA. Future expansion contemplates two additional trains to reach 26 MTPA.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Modular engineering for LNG production<\/h2>\n\n<p>The system chosen for the plant is the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lnglicensing.conocophillips.com\/what-we-do\/lng-technology\/optimized-cascade-process\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/lnglicensing.conocophillips.com\/what-we-do\/lng-technology\/optimized-cascade-process\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ConocoPhillips&#8217; Optimized Cascade Process<\/a><\/strong> (ConocoPhillips&#8217; Optimized Cascade Process, already validated in other global operations.
