A growing international footprint includes a North American headquarters in Houston and partnerships with major U.S. energy technology firms. From its founding, the company has been a technological leader and demonstrated a consistent commitment to sustainability and compliance.
Wison New Energies is committed to bringing integrated EPCIC (engineering, procurement, construction, installation and commissioning) solutions to the global energy sector. The company is known for its ability to deliver complex energy infrastructure projects with speed and precision, leveraging its proprietary standardized modularization techniques. These allow Wison New Energies to fabricate large portions of facilities in controlled environments before transporting and assembling them on-site, significantly reducing construction time and improving safety, creating a key differentiator from its competitors.
Wison New Energies maintains offices in Houston, London, Singapore and other global energy hubs, enabling close collaboration with clients and partners across continents.
FLNG Pacesetter
Founded as part of the Wison Group in 2004, Wison New Energies operates two world-class fabrication yards in Nantong and Qidong, China, capable of delivering large-scale floating energy facilities. These yards support modular construction and rapid deployment of floating solutions, including FLNG units—which produce, liquefy, store, and transfer natural gas directly above offshore gas fields—as well as FPSO vessels, which process hydrocarbons extracted from subsea reservoirs, store the stabilized oil and offload it to shuttle tankers. The yards also serve as a base for the construction of floating wind platforms, further broadening Wison’s clean energy portfolio.
The company is widely recognized as a global leader in the FLNG market and at the forefront of sector technology. The foremost technical challenge of FLNG lies in adaptation to the marine environment — ensuring that precision facilities remain stable and reliable amid ocean waves is in itself a formidable task. This means high technical barriers and high costs for FLNG, but also great added value. In addition to Wison’s capability and proven track record of building FLNG facilities, it is also the only company to have independently executed and delivered an FLNG project as an EPCIC contractor.
Wison New Energies launched the world’s first barge-based FLNG facility to achieve liquefaction production when it delivered the 144-meter Tango to Belgium’s Exmar Group. The company’s standardized floating LNG designs range from 0.65 to 6 million tons per year and are re-deployable, cost-efficient and suitable for both nearshore and deepwater applications.
Current projects such as the Nguya (for Italy’s Eni) and the Genting (for Indonesia’s Genting Oil & Gas) showcase Wison New Energies’ ability to deliver large-scale FLNG infrastructure in challenging environments. These facilities unlock energy access for regions previously excluded due to geographic or economic constraints.
The Nguya FLNG, measuring 376 meters in length, 60 meters in breadth, and 35 meters in depth with storage capacity for 180,000 cubic meters of LNG and 45,000 cubic meters of LPG, has a liquefaction capacity of 2.4 million tons per year. The facility will be deployed offshore near Pointe-Noire, Republic of Congo. On August 26, Wison New Energies and Eni held the Nguya FLNG sail away ceremony.
The Genting FLNG will head to Teluk Bintuni, West Papua, Indonesia, to work the Kasuri Block natural gas field.
Partner to Major U.S. Energy Firms
For American energy companies, Wison New Energies represents both a reliable partner and a strategic actor in the evolving clean energy supply chain. With operations in Houston and collaborations with U.S. firms such as Baker Hughes, Wison is increasingly relevant to the U.S. in terms of LNG infrastructure and energy transition technologies.
In recent years, Wison New Energies has deepened its ties with American companies. In 2022, Wison signed a joint development agreement with Georgia-based Chart Industries, a global manufacturer of cryogenic and heat-transfer equipment used in the industrial gas and energy sectors, to become the exclusive provider of cold boxes for Wison FLNG products.
In 2022 and 2023, Wison awarded two contracts to Baker Hughes, a leading U.S. energy services firm. The 2022 deal called for Baker Hughes to support a 2.4 Mtpa FLNG project. In 2023, Wison New Energies agreed to procure components for four liquefaction modules from Baker Hughes for an onshore LNG plant.
At Gastech 2024 in Houston, Wison New Energies signed additional strategic agreements with Baker Hughes and Chart Industries and unveiled its Generation 2 FLNG, which incorporates combined cycle power systems, GT air inlet chilling, and high-efficiency liquefaction cycles. This innovation reduces emissions by 35 percent compared to earlier models, demonstrating Wison’s commitment to low-carbon engineering.
Wison New Energies engages actively with the global energy community, from the Offshore Technology Conference 2025 in Houston—where it connected with U.S. stakeholders through technical presentations on floating wind and carbon capture technologies, and collaborations with U.S. suppliers for floating LNG equipment and engineering services—to major international industry gatherings such as the FPSO World Congress, the GNL Global Forum and the Petroleum & Energy Conference.
Technology Innovator
To overcome the challenges of stability and reliability in offshore environments, Wison New Energies has pioneered an industry-leading integrated standardized modularization technology, achieving a modularization rate of over 90 percent. By breaking down complex systems into standardized modules for onshore prefabrication and then lifting them onto the hull for integration, the company has shortened construction schedules by nearly one-third. Digital rehearsals and simulation modeling further ensure seamless system coordination, setting a benchmark well above the industry average of around 80 percent.
Equally groundbreaking, Wison successfully completed the assembly of the world’s largest self-supporting prismatic shape IMO Type B tank (SPB) for storing LNG. With storage capacity of 47,000 cubic meters, this tank stands as the largest single product ever designed and built using SPB technology.
Wison New Energies’ innovation strategy also includes partnerships with AI firms, developing intelligent floating liquefied natural gas and low-carbon floating production storage and offloading systems.
