The competitive advantage that characterizes us is, in large part, due to the experience we acquire in the execution of our projects and is reflected in the continuous updating of our technology.
Our goal as a company is to meet today's needs without compromising future generations.
An environment to learn, grow and thrive
TR's objective is to deliver long-term and sustainable value to its shareholders.
LNG Canada, a joint venture between Shell, Petronas, PetroChina, Mitsubishi Corporation, and KOGAS, has selected TR Canada E&C to carry out the front-end engineering design (FEED) services for Phase 2 of Coastal GasLink, located in British Columbia, on Canada’s west coast.
The FEED work will support planning for a potential Phase 2, including additional compression facilities for the Coastal GasLink Pipeline, which is owned and operated by TC Energy and its partners. LNG Canada is working with Coastal GasLink under an integrated commercial model to advance Phase 2 planning. If approved, Phase 2 would double the pipeline’s natural gas capacity using the existing infrastructure.
The now complete pipeline was always envisioned to potentially deliver up to 5 billion cubic feet per day (bcf/d) of natural gas, an increase from the current 2.1 bcf/d. Phase 2 will include the construction and operation of five additional compressor stations with compression turbines of 30MW, as well as modifications to both existing and planned facilities at various points along the pipeline route.
The scope awarded to Técnicas Reunidas includes the initial engineering and project design, along with the assessment of the potential project costs and scope for the facilities work. These activities will support the technical analysis as LNG Canada continues to explore pathways to a potential final investment decision (FID).
The award of this contract follows the work previously performed by Técnicas Reunidas in an earlier project phase, where the company provided consulting and engineering services.
Arthur Crossley, Chief Commercial Officer of Técnicas Reunidas, emphasized that this contract, in addition to its high relevance, “contributes to our goal of strengthening collaboration with global LNG developers participating in the LNG Canada joint venture, as well as boosting our growth in service contracts, which is a fundamental pillar of our Strategic Plan.”
Técnicas Reunidas presence in North America
Técnicas Reunidas has been present in Canada since 2012. It has a permanent office in Calgary with resident engineering teams and has carried out more than twenty technical studies and EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) projects for major companies in the country.
The newly awarded contract with LNG Canada adds to the company’s extensive experience in midstream projects, which includes 30,000 km of oil and gas pipelines and more than 35 large compression projects worldwide.
Additionally, the award is part of the strengthening of Técnicas Reunidas’ presence in North America—one of the main pillars of its Strategic Plan—and comes just weeks after securing the design engineering services contract for a natural gas liquefaction and export plant on the Texas Gulf Coast.
The company has already identified a pipeline of potential projects worth €28 billion in the North American market. A significant portion consists of around a dozen large-scale combined-cycle power plants, primarily aimed at meeting the high and growing energy needs resulting from the boom in large data centers being developed in the region.
