According to Natural Gas World report on May 12, Singapore Liquefied Natural Gas Corporation (SLNG), Singapore National Supercomputing Center (NSCC), National University of Singapore (NUS) and state-owned consulting company Surbana Jurong (SJ) have signed a memorandum of understanding.
SLNG said: "As Singapore accelerates its digital transformation, the world is looking for sustainable solutions to meet the growing demand for data centers.
The concept of the project is to install an NSCC supercomputer with approximately 1 petaflops of computing power at Surbana Jurong’s Singapore LNG terminal, and use the terminal’s stable and continuous cooling seawater supply to reduce the heat generated.
The discharge of cooling seawater is part of the regasification process of terminal liquefied natural gas to ensure a stable output of natural gas to meet the country's power generation needs.
Tan Soo Koong, CEO of SLNG, said: “Although SLNG is still committed to meeting or even exceeding the mission of my country’s energy security, we also hope to do our part, especially when we can use LNG expertise and terminal infrastructure to help Create new possibilities for a more sustainable energy future.
Tan Tin Wee, Chief Executive Officer of NSCC, said: “The large amount of cold energy produced by SLNG is partially released as cooling sea water.
In addition, the National University of Singapore will contribute its expertise in liquid cooling technology to POV, and Surbana Jurong will use its engineering expertise in new and renewable energy, low-carbon technology, cold energy utilization, and smart grids.

SINGAPORE LNG TO EVALUATE GREEN MODULAR DATA CENTRE SYSTEM
Singapore LNG Corp (SLNG), the National Supercomputing Centre (NSCC) Singapore, the National University of Singapore (NUS) and state-owned consultancy Surbana Jurong (SJ) have signed a memorandum of understanding to explore the development of a proof-of- value (POV) for a green modular data centre system, SLNG said on May 11.
“The collaboration is in line with the global search for sustainable solutions to meet the growing demands for data centre rack space, as Singapore accelerates its digital transformation,” SLNG said.
The concept is to install approximately one petaflop of NSCC's supercomputer at the Singapore LNG terminal on Jurong Island and use the terminal's stable and continuous chilled seawater supply to reduce the heat generated.
The chilled seawater is discharged as part of the terminal's LNG regasification process that ensures a steady send-out of natural gas for the country's power generation needs.
"While SLNG remains committed to fulfilling and even exceeding our energy security mandate, we are also keen to do our part, especially where we can leverage on our LNG expertise and terminal infrastructure, to help catalyse new possibilities for a more sustainable energy future," said Tan Soo Koong, CEO, SLNG.
Tan Tin Wee, CEO of NSCC said that SLNG produces a huge amount of cold energy which is partially discharged as chilled seawater.
Additionally, NUS will contribute its expertise in liquid cooling technology for the POV, and Surbana Jurong will leverage its engineering design expertise in new and renewable energies, low carbon technologies, cold energy harnessing and smart grid for the project.
