Design Considerations for an LNG Receiving Terminal

Proceedings of SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2003
Abstract LNG receiving or import terminals are not a new phenomenon, with over 40 in existence worldwide, the oldest being more than 30 years old. At present, there is renewed interest in LNG receiving terminals outside Japan, due to the increased demand for clean burning energy and an abundance of natural gas worldwide. Currently, there

Reliability Analysis System for LNG Receiving Terminals

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1998
Abstract A tool capable of quantitative evaluation of the reliability of LNG facilities based on FTA (Fault Tree Analysis) was developed and assembled into a system using an engineering work station. A key feature of the system is it constructs a fault tree automatically from diagrams such as process flow diagrams, and sequence block diagrams.

Offshore Salt-Cavern-Based LNG Receiving Terminal

International Petroleum Technology Conference, 2005
Abstract The global LNG business is in the early stages of a significant expansion. Predictions are that the volumes in the LNG industry will more than double in the next ten years. Production capacities of liquefaction trains are increasing and the LNG fleet is growing in numbers and in ships' cargo capacities. The

The Evaluation Of Proposed Offshore Lng Receiving Terminals

Offshore Technology Conference, 1978
ABSTRACT A methodology has been developed to evaluate proposed offshore LNG receiving terminals. This methodology, developed during the actual evaluation of a proposed facility, includes all facets affecting the proposed facility, i.e.

LNG Receiving Terminal Facilities

Journal of the Fuel Society of Japan, 1971
LNG (Liquified Natural Gas) is a novel fuel recently attracting public attention as a key to solve the recent environmental pollution problem. The paper deals with the LNG recieving terminal facilities, now under construction, at the Semboku Works of the Osaka Gas Company, as well as with the circumstances leading to the importation of LNG ...

Design of LNG Receiving Terminals

1995
Liquefied natural gas (LNG) has become increasingly important as a source of energy in recent years. In the United States, LNG has been used for “peak-shaving” purposes; i.e., natural gas from domestic sources is liquefied during “off-peak” demand periods, and then vaporized when peak demand for gas exists.

Control System for LNG Receiving Terminal

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1991
Abstract The operation control system of an LNG terminal must reduce production cost through labor saving and optimization, while providing the safe and uninterrupted gas service. To do this, a hierarchical computerized system based on the distributed computer control system has been implemented at the Osaka Gas LNG terminal.

Offshore Salt Caverns Enable a 'Mega' Sized LNG Receiving Terminal

Offshore Technology Conference, 2004
Abstract The unique and heretofore unknown combination of gas storage in man made salt caverns with LNG importation presents the possibility for LNG receiving terminals with very large storage capacity and gas send out flow rate.

LNG Receiving Terminal Associated With Gas Cycle Power Plants

Volume 2: Coal, Biomass and Alternative Fuels; Combustion and Fuels; Oil and Gas Applications; Cycle Innovations, 1997
LNG regasification process needs a considerable quantity of thermal energy that is usually obtained by cooling sea water or by burning a fraction of the evaporated natural gas. These systems, though offering low cost and high reliability, are thermodynamically inefficient: they require energy for water pumping or fuel to provide heat and do not exploit

Engineering Considerations for Offshore FSRU LNG Receiving Terminals

Proceedings of Offshore Technology Conference, 2008
Abstract This paper discusses several key engineering considerations related to the FSRU (floating storage and regasification unit) system concept for offshore floating LNG (liquefied natural gas) receiving terminals based on the author's past project experience.
