Offshore Adaptability of the CO2 Pre-Cooling Dual Nitrogen Expander Natural Gas Liquefaction Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

CO2 pre-cooling dual nitrogen expander liquefaction process was proposed for the LNG-FPSO unit and compared with propane pre-cooling dual nitrogen expander process and mixed refrigerant pre-cooling nitrogen expander process by simulation. Gas property sensitivity of the process was analyzed from the thermodynamic point of view. And offshore adaptability of the process was evaluated. The results show that the process will be suitable for mid to large-scale LNG production in severe sea condition. And it will be not sensitive to the changes of gas temperature, pressure and composition.
