(www.epcglobalinc.org). contract for the first LNG train An LNG train is the term used to describe the liquification and purification facilities on an LNG plant. In order to make it practical and commercially viable to transport LNG from one country to another, its volume has to be greatly reduced. (then stated at 2.5m t/y) and plant infrastructure at Ras Laffan adjacent to the Qatargas trains was awarded in March 1996 to the JGC/MW Kellogg partnership which bid a surprisingly low price of $600m. The other bidders with higher prices were Chiyoda Corp., Foster Wheeler with Toyo Engineering, and Bechtel with Technip. Chiyoda had done the front-end engineering and designs (FEED) for the downstream element in early 1995. Hudson Engineering had done the FEED for the upstream From the consumer to the provider. See downstream. (networking) upstream - Fewer network hops away from a backbone or hub. For example, a small ISP that connects to the Internet through a larger ISP that has their own connection to the backbone is downstream from the larger . On June 16, 1997, the JGC/Kellogg partnership signed with Rasgas a contract to build the second LNG train for $400m. At the upstream and downstream ends, costs were being reduced by about 20% from original estimates. In January 1997, Rasgas tendered the construction of its administrative building.
