La présente invention concerne des installations de traitement de fluides hydrocarbonés, des techniques de conception de telles installations, des méthodes d'utilisation de ces installations et des procédés de production de fluides hydrocarbonés dans lesdites installations. Plus particulièrement, certains modes de réalisation de l'invention s'appliquent à des installations de liquéfaction de gaz naturel (LNG), à des techniques de conception et d'utilisation de telles installations, et à des procédés de production du gaz naturel liquéfié dans lesdites installations. Dans un mode de réalisation, l'installation de traitement de fluides hydrocarbonés comprend une pluralité de modules d'unités de traitement comprenant au moins un premier type de module d'unité de traitement composé d'un ou de plusieurs modules d'unités de traitement et un second type de module d'unité de traitement comprenant au moins deux seconds modules d'unités de traitement intégrés, au moins l'un des premiers modules d'unités de traitement et au moins l'un des seconds modules d'unités de traitement étant dimensionnés pour fonctionner chacun à leur niveau d'efficacité de traitement sensiblement maximum.
