INTRODUCING THE AMERICAS LNG PROCUREMENT VILLAGE

Turbomachinery control for LNG liquefaction facilities: Five keys for success

An LNG liquefaction process is replete with turbomachinery: centrifugal compressors and gas turboexpanders provide the true motive force behind industrial refrigeration. Unfortunately, on many large- and mid-scale baseload LNG projects, turbomachinery process controls are treated as an afterthought, with the controls hardware and software selected after the specific machines are awarded. Benefits can be realized by separating the equipment and controls packages. This presentation highlighted five keys to successfully specifying and procuring turbomachinery controls for an LNG liquefaction project.

AI based autonomous LNG carrier solution: Results of on-board verification of AI CHS solution for 174K LNG carrier voyages

AI CHS Solution is the autonomous ship operation-assist system to provide economic navigation plans by utilizing cargo and shipping information. This can ensure optimized and economical operations even for unskilled operators. AI CHS Solution accurately provides the estimated amount of Boil-Off-Gas (BOG) from LNG and suggests the most efficient fuel operation guide using AI technology. In this presentation, we have showed the onboard verification results of AI CHS Solution on laden voyage of 174K LNG Carrier.

Streamlining LNG regulatory landscape: Review of industry practices for methane mitigation and emissions management

The expansion of LNG operations has led to increased methane emissions, triggering the evolution of the regulatory and voluntary initiatives landscape. There are, however, often redundancies and inefficiencies created for the operators who may have to comply with multiple regulations. In this project, GTI Energy, with the support from the United States DOT PHMSA, performed an in-depth review of a variety of global regulations. In this presentation, they shared their findings from the gap analysis and their recommendations to the global community.

Rural recharged: New energy, new possibilities – centering Louisiana’s local leaders in the LNG future

As global LNG demand accelerates, Louisiana’s rural communities are not only hosting major energy infrastructure—they’re increasingly shaping its trajectory. Yet, despite their central geographic role, rural voices remain underrepresented in strategic industry forums. This presentation aimed to flip the script by spotlighting Louisiana’s rural leaders (including parish officials, economic development professionals, workforce partners, and community advocate) as proactive agents in energy project development—driving workforce readiness, land-use planning, and community engagement aligned with long-term energy resilience.

"This is a great opportunity to showcase to the world the wonderful things that the LNG industry is doing, not only in Louisiana, not only in the United States, but globally. We welcome buyers of LNG, we welcome producers. If you are interested in energy, looking for cutting-edge technology, and want to understand what’s going on in today’s world—especially around LNG—the Americas LNG Summit & Exhibition is the place to be."

Southwest Louisiana is an LNG export superpower, with relationships that span the world, built on mutually beneficial trade. The LNG industry in Louisiana is driving inward investment and creating highly-skilled American jobs. Moreover, it's ensuring the reliable supply of energy to our international partners. The Americas LNG Summit & Exhibition brings together executives from all parts of a global industry that is enjoying an historic period of growth. This is truly a case of the right people, in the right place, at the right time. In Louisiana, we're famous for our hospitality and we look forward to welcoming you to Lake Charles, 13–15 October 2026. Laissez les bons temps rouler as we say in this part of the world: let the good times roll!

As LNG projects scale globally, the industry's ability to deliver increasingly depends on the strength and coordination of the supply chain behind it.

The Procurement Village was created to bring procurement leaders, EPCs, OEMs, operators and suppliers together in a more structured and commercially meaningful way.

It is designed to support the conversations that move projects forward - connecting decision-makers with the partners, technologies and capabilities needed to deliver LNG infrastructure at speed and scale.
