Multi-discipline engineering for LNG import terminal for Wärtsilä

Citec provided the major part of the detail engineering of the process plant.

Project description

As a response to stricter environmental requirements, a liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminal is built in Röyttä, Tornio. The terminal will make the Finnish gas and fuel markets more versatile and are used by shipping and road transportation companies as well as power and heat utilities. The terminal can also be used for LNG bunkering as well as supplying fuel for LNG-powered ships.
