据世界石油网7月3日休斯敦报道，Okra Energy（美国）公司实现了一个重要的里程碑，以其专有技术在其小型天然气液化设施中生产和交付了超过300万加仑的液化天然气，这是秘鲁首个LNG设施。
在皮乌拉安装的模块化和可扩展的LNG装置是该国第一个此类设施，也是拉丁美洲仅有的五个设施之一，即使在没有管道基础设施的情况下，也能够发掘和利用该地区的天然气能源储备。
该设施的产量代表了该国北部地区可用的大部分液化天然气，占该国整体可用液化天然气供应量的近20%。
Okra Energy的所有液化天然气生产已经预售，随后的液化列车正在签订合同。
Okra Energy的其他工厂待定合同反映了制造业在拉丁美洲对安全和清洁燃烧天然气以及运营和运输成本降低的需求。
Okra Energy秘鲁供应液化天然气的一个受益者是Siderperú，它是拉丁美洲最大的长钢制造商Gerdau公司下的一个部门。
通过从压缩天然气过渡到液化天然气以供应其Chimbote设施，Siderperú实现了运营费用的显著降低，支持生产所需的每日燃料输送量也减少了60%，进一步实现环保。

Okra Energy achieves production milestone for Peru’s first LNG facility
Okra Energy (USA) marks a significant milestone with the production and delivery of more than three million gallons of LNG produced by its proprietary technology at its small-scale natural gas liquefaction facility, the first in Perú.
The modular and scalable LNG plant installed in Piura is the first such facility in the country and The facility’s output represents the majority of the LNG available to the country’s northern regions and nearly 20% of the available LNG supply for the nation overall.
The entirety of Okra Energy’s LNG production has been presold, with subsequent liquefaction trains under contract.
Pending contracts for additional plants by Okra Energy reflect the manufacturing sector’s demand in Latin America for safe and clean-burning natural gas, as well as for reductions in operating and transportation costs.
One such beneficiary of Okra Energy’s Peruvian supply of LNG is Siderperú, a division of Gerdau, the largest long steel manufacturer in Latin America.
By transitioning from CNG to LNG in order to supply its Chimbote facility, Siderperú achieves a significant reduction in operating expenses, as well as an environmentally beneficial 60% reduction in the number of daily fuel deliveries needed to support production.
