In June, 2012, Wison Offshore & Marine, a subsidiary to Wison Group, was awarded the contract to build the 'world's first floating LNG Liquefaction, Regasification, and Storage unit.' Referred to as a FLRSU, the production unit will be delivered to Exmar under a contract with Pacific Rubiales Energy Corp. to start operation in Q4 2014 off the coast of Colombia. It will be a non-propelled barge, and will have a capacity of converting per day of natural gas into LNG. It will be built in the Wison Offshore & Marine fabrication facility in Nantong, China. Additional assistance will be provided by the Houston, Texas branch of Wison Offshore & Marine. Black & Veatch will provide engineering and procurement of the topside liquefaction equipment.
