  • the facilities can be identified into two different types, onshore and offshore.
  • LNG storage and regasification units are installed onshore, whereas offshore facilities include a floating LNG storage unit, usually an LNG carrier or a gravity based structure (GBS), and a regasification unit installed on the floating structure, a shuttle regasification vessel (SRV) or a LNG regasification vessel (RV).

  • LNG liquefied natural gas
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) regasification unit according to an embodiment of the present invention.
  • LNG liquefied natural gas
  • the LNG regasification unit is used to regasify LNG in offshore and supply the regasified LNG, to gas users onshore.
  • this invention includes the jetty unit 10, a storage unit 20, a regasification unit 30, a piping unit 40, and a utility unit 50.
  • the jetty unit 10 is a fixed structure installed in sea bed with its legs, made of steel or iron concrete.
  • the term 'jetty' has various meanings, for example, a structure like a breakwater which distinguishes an inland and the sea, or a facility which is for anchoring vessels.
  • a site with certain depth of water, higher than a predetermined depth is required.
  • the jetty can be used for berthing in the way of stretching steeled structure from onshore to offshore or constructing a container terminal after dredging.
  • the jetty unit 10 is a semi-permanent structure that is installed to maintain a constant altitude above the sea level to withstand the changes of the wave by tidal current.
  • the shape of jetty unit 10 is not limited, it can be changed according to the locations and conditions thereof as long as the storage unit 20 can be anchored at.
  • a structure for anchoring the storage unit 20, such as a mooring dolphin or a fender, may be installed around the jetty unit 10, and is not shown in FIG. 1 for illustrative convenience (all the constituents are quite simply illustrated in FIG. 1 ).
  • the storage unit 20 provides a space for storing LNG once moored at the jetty unit 10.
  • the storage unit 20 can be converted from a second-handed LNG carrier or an existing LNG floating storage unit (FSU). Meanwhile, the storage unit 20 may be fixedly moored at the jetty unit 10 and separated from the jetty unit 10 on occasional demands.
  • Conventional operation involves supplying the LNG to the regasification unit 30 after receiving LNG from another LNG carrier.
  • the storage unit 20 may move to a location where LNG is produced or another FSU by itself, then receives LNG therefrom and supply the LNG to the regasification unit 30 again after being moored at the jetty unit 10.
  • another LNG carrier may supply LNG to the regasification unit 30, at the opposite side of the jetty unit 10.
  • Fixed or movable type of the storage unit 20 is determined according to circumstances or economical efficiency. For example, when a converted LNG carrier is used for the storage unit 20, storage type can be decided depending on the situation, as its mobility is already obtained.
  • the conversion process may require the vessel to operation both LNG loading pipe 21 and LNG unloading pipe 42 simultaneously, as general LNG carrier is designed not to proceed loading and unloading at the same time. Furthermore, if the storage unit 20 is expected to move, an appropriate facility for separating the unloading pipe 42 from the storage unit 20 is required as well.
  • the storage unit 20 includes a utility facility 22, such as a power facility, a steam generator, a ballast water pump P2, etc. which general LNG carriers and FSU are already equipped, thus no additional facility is needed when the second-handed LNG carrier or the FSU is converted.
  • a utility facility 22 such as a power facility, a steam generator, a ballast water pump P2, etc. which general LNG carriers and FSU are already equipped, thus no additional facility is needed when the second-handed LNG carrier or the FSU is converted.
  • the regasification unit 30 is a module for regasifying LNG which is supplied from the storage unit 20.
  • the regasification unit 30 is also separable from the jetty unit 10. Installment of the regasification unit 30 on the jetty unit 10, which is fixed on the sea bed, allows LNG to be regasified in offshore without the problems which commonly occurs in operation of conventional FSRU of LNG RV, a danger of leakage of natural gas due to an automatic piping separation in the operation or abrupt disconnection of a high pressure gas arm on the jetty unit 10 under the various offshore conditions. Since regasification work is performed on the hull 11 of the jetty unit 10, LNG can be transferred through the pipe between the storage unit 20 and the regasification unit 30. The stability of the hull 11 allows more safe transfer of LNG, regardless of the storage unit 20 movement due to the waves and tidal current.
  • a heat exchanger of the regasification unit 30 in the present invention is an open rack vaporizer (ORV) that utilizes sea water as a heat source. By contacting the heat exchanger, sea water absorbs the heat and vaporizes LNG into gas. ORV is strongly recommended due to its low investment and operating cost. However, if sea water is not uniformly coated on the vaporizer, the heat exchanger freezes and deteriorates its structure. That is why the ORV cannot be installed on FSRU of LNG RV. For the present invention, fixed structure of the jetty unit 10 guarantees safe operation of the ORV, which is a relatively inexpensive heat exchange system.
  • a sea water pump PI in the utility unit 50 and the ballast water pump P2 of the utility facility 22 in the storage unit 20 are used to supply sea water to the ORV.
  • the sea water pump PI and the ballast water pump P2 are designed to operate simultaneous as depicted in FIG1 , it is not necessary to use both of them.
  • the sea water pump PI acts as a main pump and the ballast water pump P2 as an auxiliary pump. Or, only the sea water pump PI may be operated if the storage unit 20 is disconnected. How to supply the sea water to the ORV are subject to circumstances.
  • the piping unit 40 connecting the regasification unit 30 and the storage unit 20, includes unloading pipe 41 for supplying LNG from the storage unit 20 to the regasification unit 30 and supply pipe 42 for supplying gasified LNG from the regasification unit 30 to the end users in onshore. If required part of the piping unit 40 may be installed below a sea level.
  • the utility unit 50 (module) includes a power source, the sea water pump PI, and the steam generator for supplying power, sea water, and steam, respectively, to the regasification unit 30. Similar with the regasification unit 30, it is installed on the jetty unit 10, but also separable.
  • the utility unit 50 and the regasification unit 30 are connected by a power cable 51, sea water pipe 52, and steam pipe 53. They are respectively connected to the utility facilities in the storage unit 20 to be used simultaneously or complementarily in the present invention. Unlike shown in FIG.1 , only the utility unit 50 may operate independently.
  • the piping unit 40, the power cable 51, the sea water pipe 52, and the steam pipe 53 are quite simply illustrated in FIG.1 for illustrative convenience, but the actual design is considerably complicated. Nevertheless, for the purpose of illustration, such simple diagram will be understood by those who have knowledge of this technology.
  • LNG stored in the storage unit 20 is supplied to the regasification unit 30 through the unloading pipe 41. Once regasified through the unit 30, regasified LNG is carried to the end users' pipe line onshore through the supplying pipe 42.
  • the storage unit 20 can be fixed to the jetty unit 10 to load LNG from an LNG carrier (supplied through the loading pipe 21) or can be moved by itself to receive LNG from a neighboring FSU or a location where LNG is produced. If the storage unit 20 moves to different site, designated replacement should substitute for the previous storage unit 20, in order to supply LNG continuously.
