Air Products announced it has signed an agreement with a consortium including Technip and JGC Corporation to implement the Yamal LNG Project. The LNG plant under construction on the Yamal Peninsula will mark the first time Air Products deploys its proprietary LNG technology and equipment in Russia. The plant will be Russia's largest LNG production and export facility.

Air Products will supply three MCR(R) Main Cryogenic Heat Exchangers to be installed at the heart of the propane pre-cooled mixed refrigerant liquefaction process. Each of these units using Air Products' proprietary AP-C3MR(TM) LNG process technology and equipment will produce 5.5 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) of LNG, for the overall 16.5 mtpa three-train facility.
