Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de recyclage d'un gaz d'évaporation (BOG selon l'abréviation anglo-saxonne) d'un gaz naturel liquéfié (GNL) dans des installations de liquéfaction de gaz naturel, le procédé pouvant consister : à alimenter en gaz d'alimentation un sous-système de liquéfaction ; à liquéfier le gaz d'alimentation afin de produire du GNL et une vapeur instantanée d'extrémité (EFG selon l'abréviation anglo-saxonne) ; à comprimer la EFG afin d'obtenir une EFG comprimée ; à utiliser la EFG comprimée comme gaz combustible ; à stocker le GNL dans un ou plusieurs réservoirs de GNL ; à comprimer le BOG du GNL en provenance du ou des réservoirs de GNL afin de produire du BOG de GNL comprimé ; soit (1) à effectuer un fonctionnement en mode de recyclage au moyen de l'alimentation d'au moins une partie du BOG de GNL comprimé au gaz d'alimentation par l'intermédiaire d'une conduite bidirectionnelle, soit (2) à effectuer un fonctionnement en mode combustible à l'aide de (a) l'alimentation d'une partie du gaz d'alimentation au gaz combustible par l'intermédiaire de la conduite bidirectionnelle et de (b) l'alimentation du BOG de GNL comprimé au gaz combustible.
