LindeLiquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Plants

SHARE

LNG is natural gas in its liquid form. In order to liquefy natural gas, it must be cooled to cryogenic temperatures of approximately -160°C. As a liquid, natural gas occupies only 1/600 of the volume of natural gas (at atmospheric pressure) in its gaseous form and therefore allows for more economic and practical storage. It is also easer to transport over great distances.

Natural gas is typically transported in liquid form when vast distances, geological conditions or political dynamics do not allow for the construction of pipelines. We have many years of experience in LNG process technologies and provide solutions for all plant capacities.

Full-line supplier

In addition, we supply proprietary heat exchanger equipment, which generally lies at the heart of most natural gas processing steps. In fact, we are the only equipment manufacturer to offer both coil-wound and plate-fin heat exchangers. Covering the entire LNG value chain, we have the know-how, capacity and technology to design and construct small to mid-scale LNG terminals.
We have a long track record of successfully executed engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning natural gas projects on a lump sum, turnkey basis.
