Abstract

UN PROCESSUS EST RELEVE POUR LE TRANSPORT D'UN FLUX DE GAZ RICHE EN METHANE, TEL QUE LE GAZ NATUREL. DANS LA PREMIERE PHASE DU PROCEDE, LE GAZ EST FOURNI A UN GAZODUC A UNE PRESSION A L'ENTREE QUI EST SUBSTANTIELLEMENT PLUS IMPORTANTE QUE LA PRESSION A LA SORTIE DU GAZODUC. LA BAISSE DE PRESSION DANS LE GAZODUC CAUSE UNE BAISSE DE LA TEMPERATURE DU GAZ, PREFERABLEMENT UNE TEMPERATURE DE MOINS -29°C (-20°F). LA PRESSION A L'ENTREE DU GAZ DANS LE GAZODUC EST CONTROLEE POUR AVOIR UNE PRESSION DE SORTIE DU GAZ PREDETERMINEE DANS LE GAZODUC. LE GAZ SORTANT DU GAZODUC EST ALORS LIQUEFIE POUR PRODUIRE DU GAZ LIQUEFIE, AYANT UNE TEMPERATURE AU-DESSUS D'ENVIRON - 112°C (-170°F) ET UNE PRESSION SUFFISANTE POUR LE LIQUIDE SOIT A OU EN DESSOUS DE LA TEMPERATURE DU POINT DE BULLE. LE GAZ LIQUIFIE, COMPRIME EST ALORS TRANSPORTE PLUS LOIN DANS UN CONTAINER CONVENABLE
