Cove Point LNG Export 

Kiewit and joint venture partner IHI were awarded an EPC contract for the Cove Point LNG Export Project, which involves construction of liquefaction facilities for exporting LNG at the existing Cove Point LNG Terminal on the Chesapeake Bay in Lusby, MD. Together, the new and existing facilities will provide bi-directional import and export capabilities at Cove Point. When complete, the new Cove Point LNG plant will be a premier facility that opens international markets for the Marcellus and Utica shale plays—two of the most prolific natural gas basins in North America.

• Total liquefaction capacity: 5.25 MTPA
• New 130 MTA Power Plant
• Construction activities include tie-ins to the existing facility and relocation of existing infrastructure
