Venture Global LNG, Inc. is proud to announce the successful raising of the

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).
