LNG Regasification Systems

Normal and peak gas demand, gas composition, inlet conditions and required outlet pressure and temperature guide equipment selection. Ambient air vaporizers use the surrounding air as the heat source. Frosting, defrost periods and minimum ambient conditions are considered when reviewing continuous operation; an additional heating stage can be addressed where the duty requires it.

The gas delivery system is coordinated with storage pressure, liquid transfer and the consumption cycle. Valves, instruments and controls are selected for the equipment and agreed project boundary. An economizer can use storage vapor where operating conditions permit; it does not replace the complete pressure protection or idle-period operating review.

A satellite plant covers receiving and storage as well as gas supply interfaces, while this page addresses the regasification process. Share process conditions, site information and existing drawings so that the vaporizer, controls and connection requirements can be defined. Engineering, installation and commissioning support are included only within the agreed scope.

Equipment configuration, capacity, pressure, materials and documentation are confirmed together for the selected model and project.

LNG storage equipment includes standard nominal capacities of 5–100 m³, with project-specific configurations up to 400 m³ and model-specific MAWP options of 5–10 bar. Standard LNG semi-trailer nominal capacities are 50, 52 and 56 m³; truck-mounted bobtail options of 25 and 30 m³ can be reviewed separately. Vaporizer banks, gas demand, outlet conditions and controls are configured for the installation; the capacity of a complete regasification system is not the rating of one vaporizer.
