    摘要: A floating liquefied natural gas (“FLNG”) commissioning system and method are described. A system for commissioning a FLNG vessel comprises a floating liquefaction vessel positioned offshore proximate a shipyard, the floating liquefaction vessel comprising a natural gas liquefaction module and a first LNG storage tank cryogenically coupled to the natural gas liquefaction module, a regasification vessel positioned alongside the floating liquefaction vessel, the regasification vessel comprising a second LNG storage tank fluidly coupled to a regasification facility onboard the regasification vessel, a high pressure natural gas conduit extending between an output of the regasification facility and an input of the liquefaction module, a cryogenic transfer member extending between the second LNG storage tank and the first LNG storage tank, and a gaseous natural gas coupling extending between the natural gas liquefaction module and one of the first LNG storage tank, the second LNG storage tank or a combination thereof.
