1 Liquid natural gas LNG

2 Outline What is LNG? Well to customers

3 What Is LNG?  LNG is liquid form of the natural gas used for cooking, heating and power generation.  LNG is used as an alternative transportation fuel. Typical LNG Composition Others 5% Methane 95%

4  LNG is odorless, colorless, non-corrosive, and non-toxic.  Natural gas vaporized from LNG can cause asphyxiation in an unventilated confinement. What is LNG ?

5 Well to customers REGASIFICATION & STORAGE SHIPPING LIQUEFACTION EXPLORATION & PRODUCTION

6  Natural gas is found in the earth’s crust.  Most of the time natural gas is discovered during the search for oil.  Worldwide proved reserves of natural gas about 6000 points.  Much of this natural gas is stranded, a long way from market.  Production operations delivers the gas to users. Exploration and Production Well to customers

7  Natural gas is converted into a liquid state.  The gas is cooled to LNG temperature of -162 o C. The volume reduce by a factor of 600.  Liquefaction makes natural gas more economical to transport. Liquefaction Well to customers

8  LNG tankers are double- hulled ships specially designed and insulated to prevent leakage or rupture in an accident.  LNG is a cryogenic liquid and it is stored in double-walled tanks at atmospheric pressure.  The LNG shipping market is expanding. Shipping

9 Well to customers  At the receiving terminal the LNG is pumped into a double-walled storage tank.  Vaporized by warming in a controlled environment.  Vaporized gas is regulated for pressure and enters the natural gas pipeline system.  Residential and commercial consumers receive natural gas for daily use from local gas utilities or in the form of electricity.
