Process comparison based on simulation of identical feed gas


Note: (1) Thermal efficiency calculated as the ratio of the higher heating value (HHV) of the products to the feed. (2) Precooling of the inlet air increases the gas turbine power output. GasTech 2008 Conference / 10-13 March 2008 * Patents Pending

Additional OCX / NDX Benefits


Process Design
Multiple train design (75 mmscfd, 0.5 mta) improves reliability & availability Less equipment than SMR, DMR & Cascade = less cost, easier operation Fits on LNG carrier (new / converted) or barges (steel or concrete)

Operations
Responds quickly to oil and gas field fluctuations Handles variable gas feed rates and compositions Turndown to zero, recycle flash gas keeps system cold No cryogenic compression required, lower cost, shorter delivery Proven gas plant components: compressors, expanders, brazed aluminum heat exchangers, gas turbine or electric drives Quick, warm startup. No long cool-down or refrigeration sequence Insulated cold box keeps systems at temperature for several days
