Arcadis to help develop new South Australian gas-fired power station
01 August 2018
Arcadis: South Australia - Arcadis, the leading
global Design & Consultancy firm for natural and built assets, today
announced it will support the development of a new LNG-to-power project
in
South Australia.
Venice Energy is planning to create a 300-500-Megawatt gas-fired
power
project to support South Australia. Arcadis will deliver a bankable
feasibility study that will lead to the successful delivery of the
station and associated infrastructure.
The proposed LNG-to-power project will provide additional capacity to
the local market.
John Nicholson, Business Leader Project Management,
Infrastructure & Industrials Australia Pacific, Arcadis: “It’s
incredibly important that we look to create sustainable and resilient
power sources in South Australia to meet the State’s growing needs.
“We are confident that our feasibility study will show that once
developed, this power station will go a long way to improve the quality
of life for South Australians and support the State’s power demands,”
Nicholson said.
The concept is to create a gas-fired
power station,
LNG
receiving/storing and re-gasification infrastructure, LNG and/or
Floating Storage Re-Gasification Unit (FSRU) berthing infrastructure, natural gas supply and export
pipeline, as well as grid connection infrastructure.
The power station is envisaged to operate as a mid-merit plant and
generate a nominal 300 - 500 MW of electricity. The fuel source will be
LNG delivered via a carrier to a FSRU. LNG re-gasification will also
take place on-board the FSRU.
