Yamal LNG reached a major milestone with the December announcement of the first cargo of LNG ready to leave Sabetta.
The nameplate capacity of the first train now in production is 5.5 million tpy with a further two trains expected to be in production over 2018/2019.
Eilbeck Cranes has supplied a total of eight explosion proof jib cranes each designed to cope with the extreme conditions faced on such a plant operating inside the Arctic Circle.
