Abstract

"PRODUçãO DE LNG EM USINAS DE PROCESSAMENTO DE GáS NATURAL CRIOGêNICO". A presente invenção refere-se a um processo para liquefação de gás natural em conjunto com processamento de gás natural para recuperar líquidos de gás natural (NGL) que é divulgado. No processo, a corrente de gás natural a ser liquefeita é tomada de uma das correntes na usina de recuperação de NGL e resfriada sob pressão para condensá-la. Uma corrente de destilação é extraída da usina de recuperação de NGL para proporcionar um pouco do resfriamento requerido para condensar a corrente de gás natural. Uma porção da corrente condensada é expandida para uma pressão intermediária e, então, usada para proporcionar um pouco do resfriamento requerido para condensar a corrente de gás natural e, após o que, enviada para a usina de recuperação de NGL de modo que quaisquer hidrocarbonetos mais pesados que ela contenha podem ser recuperados no produto de NGL. A porção restante da corrente condensada é expandida para uma baixa pressão a fim de formar a corrente de gás natural liquefeita.
