Brief Project Description:

As part of the Arctic LNG 2 Project, it is planned to construct the PLANT – a fixed nearshore terminal for the production, storage and offloading of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and stabilized gas condensate (SGC). Each of the three trains will be supported on a gravity-based structure (GBS) and located within a sea port to harbour the PLANT and facilitate the offloading of the LNG and SGC (stored inside the GBSs) to LNG carriers and condensate tankers.

The Arctic LNG 2 Project consists of three trains, each with a capacity of 6.5- 6.6 MTPA of LNG. Total LNG storage volume is 687,000 m3 (229,000 m3 per GBS) and approximately 1.4 MTPA of stabilized marketable condensate with 75,000m3 of condensate storage per GBS.

The GBSs are to be fabricated in two (2) dry docks in the NOVATEK MURMANSK PLANT, which is located in the vicinity of the Belokamenka village (Murmansk Region).

The topside modules will be fabricated in local (including NOVATEK MURMANSK PLANT), or international module yards, then installed and integrated on the GBS and pre-commissioned at NOVATEK MURMANSK PLANT.

Brief CP Scope:

Galvanic system is used for cathodic protection for the steel in concrete of the internal ballast compartments, exposed to ballasted water for 3 Gravity Base Structures (GBS). According to seawater resistivity, zinc alloy-based anodes are selected to be used for CP system and Kortek is selected to provide 1200 tons of Zinc Alloyed Galvanic anodes for 3 GBS (400 tons of Anode per each GBS). Anodes have been produced and shipped successfully for 2 GBS, and production of anodes for last GBS unit are still in the progress.
