Definitions
- the invention relates to a process for the production of natural gas from maritime deposits, in which the unpurified gas is obtained on a production platform or ship, is subjected to deacidification and / or purification of carbon dioxide and water, and is fed to an LNG tanker for liquefaction by expansion becomes.
- DE-A-32 00 958 shows a process for the extraction of natural gas from maritime deposits according to the preamble of claim 1, the liquefaction being carried out entirely on the LNG tanker by pressure-increasing and cooling systems from the energy system of the LNG tanker or powered by an energy source installed on the LNG tanker.
- the further processing of non-liquefied gas components such as nitrogen and methane on the LNG tanker is not shown.
- the invention provides a remedy here. It solves the task of bunkering cleaned flash gas with existing LNG tankers in liquid form at atmospheric pressure. According to The invention solves the problem in that the pressures and temperatures necessary for liquefaction by pre-cooling and expansion for a clean gas stream are already generated with the power of energy producers on the production platform or ship before the gas reaches the LNG tanker via a high-pressure supply line, and in that at least one compressor on the LNG tanker transports the non-liquefied residual gases back to the production platform or ship via a return line.
- the natural gas itself can come from both a natural gas source and a well with associated petroleum gas.
- a production platform or ship A is shown above the sea floor, the crude oil with accompanying gas is fed in a line 1 and releases the oil processed in a production 2 via a line 3 after intermediate storage in the tank 9.
- the pre-cleaned gas is subjected to a carbon dioxide purification 6, a possible deacidification 7 and a dehydration 8 via a feed line 4 and is delivered to an LNG tanker C for liquefaction according to the Joule-Thomson effect.
- the pressures and temperatures required for liquefaction by expansion are given to a clean gas stream 11 by a compression and cooling unit 10, the power of which is fed by energy generators 12 on the production platform or ship A; furthermore, the compressed gas at pressures which are generally higher than the critical pressure of the gas mixture, via a high-pressure supply line 25, which is led directly or via buoyancy elements or buoys B to the LNG tanker, an expansion group 30 for generating approximately 1 bar of liquid LNG supplied; Finally, the non-liquefied residual gases 36, 37 are compressed with a compressor group 40 and returned to the production platform or ship A at approximately 30 bar via a return line 26, which is similar to the high-pressure supply line 25.
- the compression and cooling unit 10 consists of compressors 13, 14 with drive and energy generator 12, from coolers 17, 22 with cooling media 23, 24 and from liquid separators 15, 16, which convey separated liquid components back into the production area 2 via a return line 5.
- the expansion group 30 essentially consists of a pre-cooler 28 with a downstream expansion stage 31 and liquid separator 29, which feeds the gaseous part as cooling medium via the pre-cooler 28 into the return line 26 and the liquid portion of a cold box 27, which in this case has two expansion stages 32, 33 with downstream separators 34 and from which the liquid LNG is drawn off.
- the non-liquefied residual gases from the cold box 27 are drawn off by the compressors 41, 42 via feed lines 36, 37, 39 and compressed through feed line 38 through an aftercooler 48 with cooling medium 49 into a return line 26.
- the compressor group 40 has two housings 41, 42 and is driven by a back pressure steam turbine 43 in order to keep the space requirements for wet steam lines and for the condenser 46 within reasonable limits.
- the steam is fed in from the steam boiler of the LNG tanker C via a feed line 44.
- the condensate is subcooled in a condensate cooler 50 by a liquid cooling medium 53.
- the condensate is transported by a condensate pump 51 with line 47 back to the steam boiler and for the cooling medium 53 by a liquid pump 52.
- the process can be supported by the cooling effect of the evaporators 60, 70, 80 of closed refrigeration circuits, which are before the first compression of the clean gas 11 and / or as an intercooler during compression and / or as an additional precooler before the first expansion stage 31.
