October 07, 2024 [Gas World]- Chart Industries will supply its IPSMR® liquefaction technology and proprietary equipment for the Rovuma LNG Project in Mozambique, operated by a joint venture between ExxonMobil, Eni, and China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC).
ExxonMobil today (4th Oct) confirmed the news on the behalf of Mozambique Rovuma Venture (MRV), which was formed in December 2017. Each of the companies that make up the joint venture hold and equal share.
Once operational, the Rovuma LNG project will have a total liquefied natural gas (LNG) capacity of 18 million tonnes per annum. The project will liquify and material natural gas from reservoirs of the Area 4 block of the offshore Rovuma Basin.
The project will be made up of 12 modules with a 1.5 million tonnes per annum. The selection of Chart’s IPSMR® for the liquefaction modules is expected to improve reliability and lower greenhouse gas emissions.

Chart released its IPSMR®+ process technology in April 2019, building on the IMPSMR® process. Chart’s IPSMR®+ delivers project economics by producing more LNG while reducing plant capital cost.
The IPSMR® has been adopted by EPCs, project developers, and validated by both national and international oil companies.
