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 natural gas in the gaseous state… In a Tank […]
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 40% growth/anticipated growth between 2017 and 2023. With the shale […]
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 the operational opportunities in the current gas & LNG plants to improve the reliability […]
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, Emerson’s Buttler outlines the importance of calibration and measurement in growth of LNG […]
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 & Control (IVC) on a presentation, Remote Monitoring of LNG Facilities. Their presentation described an Australian LNG […]
