Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de liquéfaction d'un flux d'alimentation de gaz naturel (1), consistant à fournir un flux de traitement comprimé (25), obtenir un premier flux de séparation (32) à partir du flux de traitement comprimé et dilater le premier flux de séparation, refroidir le reste du flux de traitement comprimé (31) contre le premier flux de séparation dilaté, obtenir un second flux de séparation (52) à partir du flux de traitement pré-refroidi (41) et dilater le second flux de séparation, refroidir le reste du flux de traitement comprimé pré-refroidi (51) contre un flux de vapeur (56) obtenu à partir du second flux de séparation, dilater l'autre flux de traitement refroidi (61) en obtenant ainsi un flux de gaz naturel liquide (71), faire passer le premier flux de séparation (42) et le flux de vapeur (62) dans un étage de recompression (200) pour obtenir un flux de recyclage (105) à combiner à un flux d'alimentation de gaz naturel pour former le flux de traitement.
