Eni has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Argentina's YPF for the joint evaluation of a phase of the Argentina LNG project. The MoU relates to the development of upstream, transportation and gas liquefaction facilities through two floating LNG units, with a total capacity of 12 MMtpy.
An integrated project. Natural gas extracted from Vaca Muerta will be transported through a dedicated pipeline to the LNG plant to be located in Sierra Grande Norte, province of Río Negro.
Project phases. To meet as soon as possible the world’s increasing demand for reliable LNG, during its first phase,
Argentina LNG will have 2 floating liquefaction units with a production capacity of around 9 MMtpy.
