TL;DR LNG projects are becoming more modular and more complex. Modular strategies require strong standardization and integration. Global automation support from Emerson helps reduce execution risk. Enterprise Operations Platforms (EOPs) enable seamless data flow....
TL;DR Modular LNG projects prioritize speed and capital efficiency. Automation must scale to avoid becoming a bottleneck. Industrial AI accelerates configuration and engineering workflows. Simulation tools enable faster, more accurate project design. AI advisors...
Vessels transporting liquefied gases at sea incorporate specialized storage tanks, which must be equipped with both a tank gauging system and a safety system. The tank gauging system provides continuous measurement of liquid levels for inventory management and custody...
The rapid growth of LNG & FLNG projects introduces valve procurement and execution complexity that traditional approaches were not designed to handle, and project teams that fail to adapt early risk schedule slips, rework, and startup delays.
Poorly specified or undersized valves in critical services can cause unplanned shutdowns, fugitive emissions, and safety incidents, so getting valve selection right at the front end of a project and revisiting it whenever process conditions change are among the highest-leverage actions an operator or engineering contractor can take.
New pressure relief valve (PRV) designs that protect LNG storage tanks, while providing cost savings through reduced fugitive emissions and increased capacity.
Es esencial obtener mediciones de nivel muy precisas y fiables en los tanques criogénicos o refrigerados que almacenan gas natural licuado (GNL), ya que esto ayuda a prevenir sobrellenados, optimizar la seguridad del sitio y de los trabajadores y garantizar el...
Processing, storing, and transporting LNG requires a host of valves that must perform reliably under very challenging conditions. These valves must deal with cryogenic temperatures, while meeting strict requirements for tight shutoff and low fugitive emissions. Our...
Selecting the proper final elements—valves, regulators, actuators—helps to enhance equipment reliability and improve LNG and regasification plants safety—ultimately driving cost savings and operational excellence.
LNG facilities and pipelines rely on valve positioners to provide precise and reliable flow control. My article in the January 2025 issue of LNG Industry on pages 35-38, titled “Wise Valve Selection Improves Performance,” discusses key features of modern...
Emerson’s Andrea Sutti and Massimiliano Franco join Jim Cahill in this Emerson Automation Experts podcast to discuss the role of these critical valves and actuators in the world’s largest LNG project. They share the importance of selecting and testing the actuated valves to meet the requirements of safety, isolation and control applications.
Emerson’s Riyaz Ali & Tom Mullins join podcast host Jim Cahill to share the story of an LNG producer and how they applied digitalization in their project design and installation to deliver integrated solutions to improve the project schedule and ongoing operational performance.
