Delfin Midstream Extends LOA with Samsung and Orders Siemens Energy Equipment for LNG Project
Delfin Midstream has extended its Letter of Award with Samsung Heavy Industries and executed a Purchase Order with Siemens Energy for gas turbine mechanical drive packages, as it approaches a Final Investment Decision (FID) for its Delfin LNG project. The extension follows early engagement work, with the FID expected in February 2026.
Black & Veatch will serve as the prime subcontractor for topsides engineering and procurement, utilizing its PRICO liquefaction technology. Delfin has also reserved manufacturing slots for additional equipment necessary for the project.
The Delfin LNG project aims to develop a brownfield deepwater port offshore Louisiana, supporting up to three floating LNG vessels with a production capacity of approximately 13 million tonnes of LNG annually. In March 2025, Delfin received the necessary approvals from the U.S. Maritime Administration and the Department of Energy for its offshore LNG export facility.
