Macaw announced in a social media post on Wednesday it achieved its first LNG from stranded flare in Texas using the F2X mobile unit, turning wasted gas into “clean energy.”
The company did not provide further details.
Golar’s CEO Karl Staubo said during the company’s third-quarter earnings call in November 2024 that Macaw has “produced and sold its first ISO containers produced from flare gas in Texas to industrial clients.”
“We continue to fine-tune operations to adjust for the gas quality variability from associated US shale gas production,” he said.
Staubo revaled in May 2024 that Macaw has successfully developed the pilot LNG production unit named F2X.
One F2X unit can produce about 700 MMbtu of LNG and about 500 MMbtu of NGLs per day.
He said during Golar’s second-quarter results call in August 2024 that Macaw has deployed the first F2X at the live well in Texas.
Staubo also noted that Golar will consider strategic alternatives for the Macaw growth phase once the unit has proven stable operations on live well production.
Golar’s quarterly presentation showed that Macaw signed joint development agreements with “multiple clients” across the US, Mexico, Ecuador, and Colombia.
The company is also in talks with customers in Brazil and Peru, according to the presentation.
