Abstract
Installation pour la production de gaz naturel liquéfié comprenant un train de liquéfaction. Le train comprend une pluralité de modules pour effectuer les étapes de traitement associées à la production de gaz naturel liquéfié. Le train comprend en outre une boucle de refroidissement primaire pour refroidir au moins un flux de traitement provenant de chaque module et des premier et second réfrigérants mélangés par rapport à un premier fluide de refroidissement comprenant de l'eau propre. La boucle de refroidissement primaire est une boucle d'eau propre fermée, et le refroidissement est réalisé par rapport à une température ambiante. Le train comprend en outre une première pluralité d'échangeurs de chaleur à travers lesquels s'étend la boucle de refroidissement primaire. Le refroidissement est réalisé par échange de chaleur dans au moins la première pluralité d'échangeurs de chaleur par rapport au premier fluide de refroidissement. Plus de 50 % de la première pluralité d'échangeurs de chaleur sont des échangeurs de chaleur à circuit imprimé, qui sont adaptés pour fournir au moins 80 % du refroidissement à l'encontre de la température ambiante.
