We will briefly discuss the evolution of the technology for level measurement, the requirements of Full Containment storage tanks, challenges we expect to face, the outmoded technologies and the best-in-class solutions, and finally the system make up of a robust Rosemount Full Containment Tank Gauging Solution.
Liquefied natural gas is methane with some ethane possibly mixed in cooled down to -162 degC (-260 degF) to transition the gas into a liquid state. It is liquefied: …for ease and safety of non-pressurized storage or transport. It takes up about 1/600th the volume of...
I was copied on an email exchange about the outlook for the liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry. Emerson's Chuck Miller shared some great thoughts that I wanted to highlight in this post. From a global perspective, China became the largest gas importer this year with...
At the recent 2018 Gastech Conference in Barcelona, Spain, Emerson's Patrick Deruytter presented on ways for gas plants and liquefied natural gas (LNG) production facilities to drive operations to top quartile performance. The focus of the presentation was to look at...
In many parts of the world, technologies to open shale formations for oil and gas production have yielded vast quantities of natural gas. The liquefaction process makes it practical to ship liquefied natural gas (LNG) across the globe. In a SmartBrief article,...
As technologies continue to advance, so do the opportunities to remotely monitor production sites, even from great distances. At the Emerson Exchange conference in Brussels earlier this year, Emerson's Stuart Chisholm team with Dipak Sagar of Industrial Video &...
Liquefied natural gas (LNG) facilities require careful pressure management on their incoming gas pipelines. In a recent LNG Industry article, Turn it Up (and Down), Emerson's Michael Calvert describes the challenges and solutions around the Santos Gladstone LNG (GLNG)...
Liquefied natural gas (LNG) custody transfer has traditionally involved fiscal risk given the uncertainties in traditional tank measurement technologies. Quantities are invoiced in units of transferred LNG energy based on a calculation of volume, density, and gross...
Author: Khadra Helminski The article, Reducing Measurement Uncertainty, puts the current liquefied natural gas (LNG) trade in perspective as we look at dynamic (flow metering) and static (tank level) measurement methods of LNG and the technologies used for LNG bulk...
Author: Douglas MorrisThe 33rd annual CERAWeek Conference, led by Daniel Yergin, was held this week in Houston, Texas USA. This year's event very much echoed the theme from the last couple of conferences and focused on unconventional oil and gas. The effects of these...
This post originally appeared over at the Emerson South Korean blog earlier today to celebrate the 200th translated Emerson Process Experts post shared with process manufacturers in South Korea. Thanks to the South Korean Emerson team for their efforts in bringing...
Yesterday, we highlighted the role of mass-based flow measurement in liquefied natural gas (LNG) custody transfer applications. Today, I wanted to highlight the role of radar tank gauging technology in LNG tank storage applications. I'll point the LNG Tank Gauging...
