Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to a natural gas inflow system and a natural gas inflow system of FLNG,

The present invention relates to a system for introducing natural gas mined from a gas field in FLNG into FLNG, and a method for introducing the system.

Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is an eco-friendly fuel with low emissions of air pollutants during combustion, and its consumption is rapidly increasing worldwide. Generally, the liquefied gas is liquefied at the cryogenic temperature from the production site and then transported to the destination by a transporting line (LNGC, LNG Carrier). Since the volume of the liquefied natural gas liquefied at a cryogenic temperature is much smaller than that in the gaseous state, There is an advantage of facilitating the transfer.

Recently, LNG-FPSO (LNG Floating Production, Storage and Offloading, FLNG), which can produce, store and unload LNG in a floating structure, has been developed and used.

In other words, FLNG is moored in the natural gas area and takes in the natural gas from the gas field by the gas inlet device, preprocesses the imported natural gas, and liquefies it by the liquefaction device to produce liquefied natural gas. As shown in FIG.

In addition, LPG and condensate are produced separately during liquefaction and storage of natural gas.

To draw in the gas, a gas inlet device is installed in the gas reservoir, natural gas mined through a plurality of risers connected from the gas inlet device is introduced into the FLNG, Production process.

However, if natural gas is produced for a long time in the gas field, the pressure at which the natural gas is introduced through the riser in the gas field becomes lower than at the initial stage of production, and the viscosity of the natural gas is also increased so that the amount of natural gas introduced into the FLNG is reduced do.

Therefore, there is a problem that the production amount of liquefied natural gas or the like is reduced.
