Sweetening
We have designed more than 50 plants to remove carbon
dioxide and sulfur components from natural gas using
chemical or physical solvents. The total installed capacity of
these facilities is about 20 BSCFD (190 BCM), with the largest
single-unit capacity at around 1.5 BSCFD. The acid gas content
(H2S + CO2) of gases treated ranges from a few ppm to 60%.
Sulfur recovery
With some 80 units producing more than 35,000 t/d, we are the leading
engineering contractor in the field of sulfur recovery plants.
We designed the world’s largest single train capacity (2,250 t/d) for
Machino-Import at Astrakhan, Russia.

Dehydration and
mercury removal
We have extensive experience in gas dehydration
units using solid-bed adsorbents (zeolithes, silca-gel),
glycol dehydration, and hydrate inhibition systems.
We also provide mercury removal units and polishing
technologies (scavengers and regenerable adsorbents).

Gas-To-Liquids (GTL)
TechnipFMC is a leader in the design and construction of
GTL facilities, which convert natural gas to high-quality
petroleum products such as naphtha and diesel fuel.
These products are sulfur-free and contain no aromatics,
and the diesel fuel has a high cetane number.

Liquefied
Natural Gas (LNG)
TechnipFMC’s experience in natural gas liquefaction dates to the industry’s
origins, starting with the design and construction of the world’s first
base-load facility at Arzew, Algeria. We have been active in LNG ever since
and are among the few major players offering the full range of services,
from conceptual study to lump-sum, turnkey projects.
