Venture Global Calcasieu Pass Announces Successful Roof Raising for Second LNG Storage Tank
ARLINGTON, Virginia, May 20, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Venture Global LNG, Inc. is proud to announce the successful raising of the 
second LNG storage tank roof at the company's Calcasieu Pass LNG export 
facility in Cameron Parish, Louisiana.  This major project milestone was 
completed nearly three months ahead of schedule and comes a mere nine months 
after the project's final investment decision (FID).

The 1.8 million pound tank dome and assembly were air raised into place on 
Tuesday, May 19th, less than a month after the raising of the first LNG tank 
roof on April 24th.  Air raising allows for better and safer access as well as 
a faster construction schedule, as the roof can be erected concurrently with 
the shell.  The tank dome was raised in one hour and 20 minutes using 0.25 psi 
of pressure.  CB&I Storage Tank Solutions, a division of McDermott 
International, Inc., is constructing the project's dual 200,000 m3 tanks.  

Venture Global is also pleased to announce that the first modules for the 
export facility's 720 MW combined cycle gas turbine power plant have now 
arrived at site.  Key components of the gas insulated switchgear (GIS) have 
been successfully installed on schedule, and the site has also begun receiving 
and setting modules for the air cooled condenser (ACC).
