As the global demand for cleaner and more efficient energy solutions grows, Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is increasingly becoming a preferred choice for energy supply. The FT-LNG gas supply system provides a comprehensive solution for LNG transportation, storage, and distribution. FEITING, a leading provider of LNG systems, offers a range of skid-mounted equipment tailored to the specific needs of LNG stations. These systems are designed to improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and provide reliable energy supply in both urban and industrial settings.
The FT-LNG gas supply system integrates multiple functions, including gasification, decompression metering, odorization, and pressure regulation, into one cohesive, compact unit. Whether it's for a full LNG skid-mounted station or individual skids, FEITING’s solutions offer high mobility, easy installation, and low operational costs.
Key Components of the FT-LNG Gas Supply System
The FT-LNG gas supply system consists of several essential components that work together to ensure a seamless flow of LNG from reception to distribution:
1. Receiving System: The receiving system is responsible for safely receiving LNG from carriers or other storage facilities. It ensures the proper transfer of LNG while minimizing any risks during offloading.
2. Gasification System: Gasification is a crucial process that turns liquid natural gas into gaseous form, making it ready for distribution. FEITING’s gasification system utilizes atmospheric heat, significantly reducing operating costs. This process is highly efficient and environmentally friendly.
3. Decompression Metering System: This system reduces the pressure of LNG to a suitable level for safe consumption and accurate metering. It is designed for high reliability and precision in gas flow measurement.
4. Odorizing System: To ensure safety, the odorizing system adds a distinctive odor to the gas for easy leak detection. This is a key safety feature in LNG applications.
5. Control System: The control system provides monitoring and regulation of all processes within the LNG gas supply system. It is designed to be user-friendly and supports remote operation, allowing operators to monitor the system efficiently and manage operations without the need for constant on-site presence.
Key Features and Benefits of the FT-LNG Gas Supply System
FEITING’s FT-LNG gas supply system is designed with a focus on flexibility, efficiency, and reliability. The system provides several key advantages:
1. Compact Structure: The skid-mounted design offers a compact and modular system that reduces space requirements at LNG stations. This makes it an ideal solution for areas with limited space, while also reducing the need for extensive infrastructure.
2. Small Footprint: Due to its small footprint, the system can be deployed in a wide variety of locations, including urban environments, offshore platforms, and remote areas.
3. Low Operational Costs: The use of atmospheric heat in the gasification process significantly reduces energy consumption, helping operators cut down on operating costs over time.
4. Skid-Mounted Integration: The integration of all components into a single skid-mounted system simplifies installation and minimizes construction time. Skid-mounted systems can be rapidly deployed and put into operation, offering fast deployment in areas requiring an immediate LNG supply solution.
5. Remote Monitoring and Unattended Operation: The system is equipped with a control system that supports remote monitoring and management, allowing operators to oversee operations from a distance. This feature is particularly valuable for reducing labor costs and ensuring continuous operations without constant manual intervention.
6. Highly Mobile and Reusable: The modular nature of the system makes it easy to relocate or repurpose the equipment, providing flexibility for various operational needs or temporary installations.
Technical Parameters of the Gasification and Decompression Skid
The FT-LNG gas supply system is designed to operate efficiently within specific pressure and temperature ranges, offering high reliability and flexibility. Key technical parameters of the gasification decompression skid include:
- LNG Storage Tank Pressure: 0.3-0.8 MPa
- Air Temperature Vaporizer Outlet Pressure: 0.3-0.8 MPa (isobaric gasification process)
- Pressure Regulating Skid Inlet Pressure Range: 0.3-0.8 MPa
- Pressure Regulating Skid Outlet Pressure Range: 0.03-0.4 MPa (configured per user requirements)
- Voltage Regulation Accuracy: AC5; AC10; AC15 (according to customer specifications)
- Closing Pressure Level: SG10; SG15; SG20
In addition, the system offers several configurations for vaporization, pressure regulation, and heating:
- Vaporizers are typically configured in pairs—one operating and one standby.
- The pressure skid generally includes two main pressure adjustments and one BOG (Boil-Off Gas) decompression system.
- The system includes options for electric heating or water bath heaters, allowing flexibility in operation depending on environmental conditions.
- Cylinder group gasification systems are equipped with BOG priority utilization processes, ensuring efficient use of available gas.
