Chart’s pre-cooled single mixed refrigerant process technology and modular liquefaction solution increase efficiency and lower costs.
LNG Alliance selected Chart Industries' integrated pre-cooled single mixed refrigerant (IPSMR) process technology and modular liquefaction solution for its Amigo LNG export facility in Guaymas, Sonora, Mexico—it has a capacity of 7.8 MTPA.
“We are happy to partner with Chart Industries on our Amigo LNG project,” said Muthu Chezhian, CEO of LNG Alliance. “LNG Alliance is strategically optimizing an LNG facility with an export capacity of 7.8 MTPA by moving to a modular mid-scale solution, resulting in a smaller footprint, higher efficiency, and lower cost, therefore offering customers the most efficient and effective solution.”
IPSMR enables customers and operators to customize their liquefaction systems to meet site-specific conditions, optimizing the alignment of compression power with single cold box capacity, thereby maximizing operational efficiency and reducing costs.
“This strategic collaboration between Chart and LNG Alliance demonstrates the LNG industry's ongoing evolution, reflecting our shared commitment to innovation and optimization,” stated Jill Evanko, CEO and President of Chart. “Together, we look forward to delivering superior value, performance, and efficiency to stakeholders worldwide.”
LNG Alliance will leverage Chart’s full spectrum of IPSMR solutions, including its mid-scale modular solution. Chart’s module offering incorporates:
This modular solution addresses the challenge of achieving the best balance between large-scale LNG facility economics and high operational efficiency.
In March 2025, Blue Spruce Operating selected Chart Industries to supply the nitrogen rejection unit (NRU), helium process technology, and related equipment for its Dry Piney Helium and Carbon Sequestration Project in Sublette County, WY.
“We are pleased to partner with Blue Spruce Operating on their unique and large-scale Dry Piney Helium and Carbon Sequestration Project,” said Jill Evanko, Chart’s CEO and President. “We look forward to delivering this project on time across the coming two years, as well as providing operational support to Blue Spruce over the many decades this project will be producing helium and other valuable products.”
At full operational capacity, the Dry Piney Project is expected to generate:
In mid-April 2024, Chart Industries received an order from Black & Veatch for the supply of critical liquefaction equipment to the Cedar LNG project in Kitimat, Canada. The order includes the supply of natural gas liquefaction cold boxes and brazed aluminum heat exchangers for the floating LNG (FLNG) project.
The Cedar LNG project is led by the Haisla Nation with cooperation from the Pembina Pipeline Corp., representing the first time that the Haisla Nation will directly own and participate in industrial development within its territory. The FLNG facility will sit along the Douglas Channel in British Columbia, near the Haisla Nation’s Kitamaat Village.
