3 Outline Introduction Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Block diagram of LNG plant Main process stages Liquefaction process technologies Examples from Hammerfest LNG Plant Examples from other LNG plants

4 Why produce Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG)? LNG is mainly produced for transportation purposes Gas market is far from the source of the natural gas: More economical to transport the gas as LNG instead of in a natural gas pipeline. LNG also offers greater flexibility than pipeline gas Cost per unit gas transported Ca 1500 km Ca 4000 km Transport distance 4

5 What is LNG? LNG is a cryogenic liquid A cryogenic liquid liquefies at a temperature below 73 C (-100 F) at atmospheric pressure. Common cryogenic liquids are; Nitrogen, Oxygen, Helium, Hydrogen and LNG LNG is natural gas that has been cooled and condensed to a liquid At atmospheric pressure LNG has a temperature of about 162ºC LNG contains about % methane LNG is colorless, odorless, non-corrosive and non-toxic Evaporated LNG can displace oxygen and cause human suffocation Flammability range, 5-15 vol % concentration in air Autoignition temperature, 540 C 5

6 LNG Density 1 m 3 LNG corresponds to ca 600 Sm 3 natural gas S = Standard state, 15 C, 1 atm Natural gas At temperatures above -110 ºC LNG vapour is lighter than air LNG LNG is lighter than water LNG Density: 450 kg/m 3 Water density: 1000 kg/m

10 Gas conditioning (pre-treatment) Acid Gas (CO 2 and H 2 S) removal Acid gas causes corrosion, reduces heating value, and may freeze and create solids in cryogenic process Typical requirements for LNG: Max 50 ppmv CO 2, Max 4 ppmv H 2 S (ppmv - parts per million by volume) Dehydration (water removal) Water will freeze in cryogenic process Typical requirement: Max 1 ppmw (weight) H 2 O Mercury removal Mercury can cause corrosion problems, especially in aluminium heat exchangers Requirement: Max 0.01 g/nm

11 MDEA (Amine) process for acid gas removal

18 LPG extraction (Example based on C3MR process, Source: Air Products) Upstream Integrated Why LPG extraction?:i) LNG heating value adjustment, ii) remove components that may freeze out in liquefaction process, iii) generate valuable LPG product, iv) produce refrigerant make-up (C1, C2, C3) Upstream LPG extraction usually based on expander process. Can provide deep extraction of C3 and C2. Feedgas need to be recompressed before liquefaction. Liquefaction pressure can be high. Integrated process usually based on scrub column i.e. feed gas pressure need to be sub critical. Scrub column reflux temperature determines degree of extraction. Pressure restricted by p crit

19 Above-ground full-containment LNG tank design Pre-stressed concrete outer walls constructed by slipforming, sheathed internally with a gastight layer of nickel-alloyed steel. Inner tank in nickel-alloyed steel, separated from the outer walls by a layer of perlite - a variety of volcanic obsidian highly suitable for insulation Extra layer of steel and insulation at the transition between outer wall and tank bottom to protect it against strong local stresses should the inner tank begin to leak. Heating cables under the tanks will ensure that the ground remains above 0 C in order to prevent frost heaving. 19
