摘要： A natural gas handling system is provided having a new modular design to provide clean and accessible fuel for remote compressed natural gas. The natural gas handling system has a storage unit with a heated exchanger that converts the liquefied natural gas to compressed natural gas having a predetermined pressure of approximately 5000 psig without the use of pumps or compressors. The LNG/CNG storage unit has an outlet for providing warmed natural gas at approximately psig. If desired, refrigeration can be supplied from the −260° F. LNG during the vaporization process. The LNG/CNG storage unit also has a second outlet with a pressure regulator for providing warmed compressed natural gas at approximately 60 psig.

摘要： A pre-manufactured natural gas delivery station is presented to a client that filters, measures, controls, pre-heats, pressure reduces, odorizes, and provides communication, provides excess power, and provides excess heat for a host site. The design is pre-approved by supply pipeline, end users and regulatory bodies. The final configuration is welded, assembled, wired, painted, tagged, and tested, at a factory site and then shipped to an installation site in accordance with customer's requirements. The station is commissioned, operators are trained and a three volume project DATA book is installed in the control room for documentation. The pre-manufactured natural gas delivery station can include a high pressure gas metering room and regulating room that can be selectively coupled to other prefabricated modular rooms or modules. Preferably, the other prefabricated modules include an odorant room, a heating room, an energy generation room and an electrical control and communications room. The equipment and control systems for each room is preinstalled and secured to the building structure in each of the different modules at the factory site. The energy generation room and the electrical control room allows the gas metering station to be operated by electrical energy from a local utility line or from an internal generator that is fueled by the gas being metered.

摘要翻译： 向客户提供预制的天然气输送站，过滤，测量，控制，预热，减压，加臭，并提供通信，提供过量的电力，并为主机场提供过量的热量。 该设计由供应管道，最终用户和监管机构预先批准。 最终配置在工厂现场进行焊接，组装，有线，涂漆，标签和测试，然后根据客户的要求运送到安装地点。 车站被委托，操作人员接受了培训，并在控制室安装了一个三卷项目DATA书以进行文件编制。 预制天然气输送站可以包括高压气体计量室和调节室，其可以选择性地耦合到其它预制模块化房间或模块。 优选地，其它预制模块包括加臭室，加热室，能量发生室和电气控制和通信室。 预先安装每个房间的设备和控制系统，并将其固定在工厂现场的每个不同模块的建筑结构中。 能量发生室和电气控制室允许气体计量站由来自当地公用事业线的电能或由被计量的气体燃料的内部发电机操作。
