Name and Location
Alaska liquefied natural gas (LNG) project, US.

Client
The Alaska LNG project participants are the Alaska Gasline Development Corporation and affiliates of TransCanada, BP, ConocoPhillips, and ExxonMobil.

Project Description
The proposed project entails the construction of a liquefaction plant and terminal in the Nikiski area on the Kenai Peninsula; a 1287.48 km, 106.68 cm pipeline; up to eight compression stations; at least five takeoff points for in-state gas delivery; and a gas treatment plant located on the North Slope.

Nikiski is the lead site for a liquefaction plant where gas will be cooled and condensed to 1/600th of its previous volume.

The project is anchored by the Prudhoe Bay and Point Thomson fields. These fields are expected to deliver on average about 3.5-billion cubic feet of gas a day with about 75% from the Prudhoe Bay field and 25% from the Point Thomson field.

Value
The Alaska LNG will entail an estimated investment of between $45-billion and $65-billion.

Duration
The project is expected to be completed in 2016.
