Closure and preparation for operation
• Final closure of tank manholes after final inspections
• Launch of the first drying and purging sequences
• Gradual transition from construction mode to operation/commissioning mode
660,000 m³ of nitrogen injected for a perfectly controlled environment
To ensure a dry and inert environment, the teams carried out a large-scale drying and purging campaign:
• Approximately 660,000 m³ of nitrogen injected into the enclosure
• A very low dew point and oxygen content, in accordance with the project’s technical requirements
• Use of high-performance membrane units
• 24-hour operation and real-time monitoring in harsh conditions
A perfectly coordinated transition from construction to commissioning
This sensitive stage mobilised the construction, commissioning, HSE and operations teams around a single objective: to deliver a tank ready to enter the cooling phase, under optimal safety condition
Next step: cooling down the tank, then filling it with LNG.

The client was expecting a physical scale model of its industrial facility to be delivered to its offices in time for Christmas.
Two months before the deadline, the model was damaged during customs processing. Repairing it in time was no longer possible. It was
One day, he helps the proposal teams put a price on a solution. The next day, he defines temporary installations and lifting plans or drafts an implementation procedure in collaboration with the engineering and construction teams. Every choice of method affects the timeline, costs… and
