Dixstone, a Netherlands-based offshore engineering services company, has been awarded the construction, procurement, and integration contract for its new LNG project in Cap Lopez, Gabon.

This project involves a nearshore-type LNG facility that will produce 0.7 million metric tons per annum of LNG and 25,000 tons of LPG per year (Phase 1), with a storage capacity of 137,000 m³ in an ex-gas tanker converted to a Floating Storage and Offloading (FSO) vessel.

Dixstone will construct the liquefaction barge in Dubai, where it has established a new office based on its extensive experience in international FSO/FPSO conversions over the last 20 years.

The company has successfully completed over 15 MOPU/MODU/MOCU/MOLQU/MOPoDU conversions and upgrades in various countries, including those in Africa, the UK, Brazil, and the Caribbean.

Dixstone is providing unique local content capacity to the project through its “Les Chantiers du Gabon” yard in Port-Gentil.

The yard will support Perenco Oil & Gas Gabon with onshore works necessary to gather gas from operated fields in the country and support works at the Cap Lopez Terminal.
