Gas Processing/LNG
LNG technology—The next chapter
Technical challenges of new plants will involve the sizing of trains, construction cost controls, onshore vs. offshore, energy efficiencies and environment
Developing mid-scale LNG projects from the contractor's perspective
Modular liquefaction methods reduce construction and operating costs for smaller reserve developments
HPIn LNG: Will LNG liquefaction project development prosper?
Since 1995, the volumes of liquefied natural gas (LNG) delivered have risen at a rate of over 7%/yr. Forecasts indicate that LNG deliveries will continue to grow at this rate over the foreseeable futu..

Controlling heat exchanger cool-down increases efficiency and availability
Improve amine absorber operations
Follow these three easy steps to find more flexibility in absorber systems
Better manage risks of gas-processing projects
All projects contain risks and opportunities; responding to these uncertainties requires a structured approach to risk management
HPIn LNG: Choosing the best offshore liquefaction process
Unlocking offshore gas reserves without investing in capital-intensive pipeline infrastructure, infield platforms and onshore infrastructure—while also minimizing exposure to geopolitical and sec..
HPIn LNG: Keeping the path clear for LNG
There is no question about it. With a growing national population, the US must make critical decisions now about how it will address the increasing demand for energy. As the cleanest burning fossil fu..
HPIn LNG: Consider automation strategies for LNG facilities
The LNG marketplace is complex and is becoming quite competitive. Accordingly, process control/automation systems should not be viewed as a commodity product—used to strictly minimize operation c..
