Background
The government of Papua New Guinea entered a joint agreement with state-owned Dirio Gas & Power, supported by Twenty20 Energy, to develop a series of Power Island Floating Storage Regasification & Power (FSRP) facilities as part of the PAWA PNG Project. The facilities—consisting of power barges, fuel barges, and floating piers—will provide a total of 283 MW of LNG-fired power to a dozen locations around Papua New Guinea. Twenty20’s FSRP features two specific unit sizes with differing outputs, ranging from 8.6 MW to 21.9 MW, that will be used in each location.[1]
