On 5 December 2016 PFLNG Satu, marked another major milestone when the facility successfully produced its first liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the Kanowit gas field, offshore Sarawak.
PFLNG Satu, the world’s first operational floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) facility, reached its final stages of commissioning and startup with the introduction of gas from the KAKG-A central processing platform at the Kanowit gas field on 14 November 2016. The gas is treated and liquefied via its nitrogen-based liquefaction unit and processed into the first drop of LNG.
The first LNG milestone signified the final stages of commissioning and start up for the floating LNG facility that will soon progress towards commercial operations and first cargo.
