there part of the article:
In support of this Request, Pieridae USA states that the Project's timeline was pushed back due to its unsuccessful, costly and time-consuming engagement with several internationally regarded LNG engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) companies in undertaking the necessary steps to enter a lump sum turnkey EPC and commissioning contract for the Project, in addition to the “unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic which offered its own additional and significant impacts on the Project's ability to move forward.”
[] Pieridae USA states that it engaged further a EPC company to review and revise the design to a more modularized Project.
[] According to Pieridae USA, the revised design, completed in January 2023, is in line with many recent US LNG export projects based on a smaller scale modularized approach.
[] Pieridae USA states that it is now ready to progress this concept in the realization of the Project.
[] Pieridae USA asserts that granting the requested extension of time will enable Pieridae USA to complete the necessary detailed design, engineering and costing work in order to commence construction and place the Goldboro LNG Project into service.
[] Pieridae USA states that “[t]he only change to the Project [from the original Application] will be the use of ten smaller modularized liquefaction trains versus the two larger liquefaction trains.”
