摘要: A method is provided for operating a system for the liquefaction of gas of the type comprising a main heat exchange vessel, a bundle for the gas to be liquefied extending through said MCHE and a refrigerant compression circuit of which a first end leads evaporated refrigerant from the vessel towards a compressor and a second end supplies the compressed and cooled refrigerant from the compressor towards the MCHE. For avoiding problems during heat up or during start up of the heat exchanger the pressure within the liquefaction system is controlled by regulating the amount of evaporated refrigerant in the liquefaction circuit.

摘要: An apparatus and method for producing liquefied natural gas. A liquefaction plant may be coupled to a source of unpurified natural gas, such as a natural gas pipeline at a pressure letdown station. A portion of the gas is drawn off and split into a process stream and a cooling stream. The cooling stream passes through an expander creating work output. A compressor may be driven by the work output and compresses the process stream. The compressed process stream is cooled, such as by the expanded cooling stream. The cooled, compressed process stream is divided into first and second portions with the first portion being expanded to liquefy the natural gas. A gas-liquid separator separates the vapor from the liquid natural gas. The second portion of the cooled, compressed process stream is also expanded and used to cool the compressed process stream.

摘要: An apparatus and method for controlling temperature in a boil-off gas in a liquefaction plant prior to compression, wherein boil-off gas originating from an LNG storage tank is compressed and at least partially condensed, and wherein the condensed boil-off gas (LNG) is being returned to the storage tank. A heat exchanger (20) is connected to the boil-off gas feed line upstream of the compressor (10), and a first conduit (22) fluidly connects the line for returning LNG to the storage tank and the heat exchanger (20). A second conduit (26) fluidly connects the heat exchanger (20) to the boil-off gas feed line at a point upstream of the heat exchanger (20). Boil-off gas is heat exchanged against the cooler (24) prior to being fed into the compressor (10). Thus, the boil-off gas temperature is lowered downstream of the heat exchange.

摘要: An apparatus, a system and a method for producing liquefied gas are provided. A liquefaction plant may be coupled to a source of, for example, unpurified natural gas, such as a natural gas pipeline at a pressure letdown station. A portion of the gas is drawn off and split into a process stream and a cooling stream. The cooling stream may pass through an expansion device. The compressed process stream is cooled, such as by a heat exchange process utilizing the expanded cooling stream, by a heat exchanger utilizing a separate, independent refrigerant, or by both. The cooled, compressed process stream is expanded to liquefy the natural gas. A gas-liquid separator separates the vapor from the liquid natural gas. A portion of the liquid gas may be used for additional cooling or substantially all of the liquid gas may be collected as product.

摘要: A method for recovering gas is described and includes compressing gas with a turboexpander-driven compressor. The compressor may be a high speed cryogenic centrifugal compressor and the gas to be recovered may be generated from a source of liquefied gas, such as during the transfer of liquefied natural gas from a shipping vessel to a storage tank. A system for recovering gas is also provided and includes a turboexpander-driven compressor in communication with a source of gas to be compressed. The system may be provided with a circuit such that at least a portion of the compressed gas, and/or at least a portion of an expanded, reduced-pressure gas exiting the turboexpander, is directed to the source of the gas.
