Study Background: Introduction
LNG Regasification Process turns the cold LNG into Natural Gas so that
it can be given to the End User.
Traditionally 2 different methods are used for LNG Regasification:
Submerged Combustion Vaporisers (SCVs) using a burner as
the heat source
Open Rack Vaporisers (ORVs) using sea water as the heat
source
But both methods have a negative impact on the environment:
SCVs: Emission of flue gases containing NO
x
, CO, CO
2
ORVs: Discharge of large volumes of seawater containing hypo-
chlorite and at up to 10C colder than the seawater intake
temperature

LNG feed Natural Gas

Study Motivation (External)
Global warming due to increase in human emissions of CO
2
require new
environmentally friendly products
Kyoto agreement
EU 2020 Goal
There is an existing and growing market on offshore and onshore LNG
Regas terminals
There are restrictions on planning and building of LNG Regas terminals
due to environmental regulations
Upcoming new technology for environmentally friendly large scale
energy production:
Post-combustion (ACC) Available technology
Pre-combustion Future Technology
Oxyfuel Emerging Technology

Aker Solutions has built two-third of worlds offshore GBS structures
This Regas terminal is assumed to be built on GBS
Experience on major onshore LNG regasification terminals
Slide 10

Study Aims
Design a NEW environmental friendly LNG Regas terminal that does not
produce any emission or effluents
Power generation with CO2 separation (minimal harmful emissions)
No discharges to sea
This new technology will be a real
competitor to the traditional LNG Regas
market, in the areas where stricter
environmental restrictions are enforced.

Basis for layout:
GBS dimensions based on Adriatic (180m long x 88m wide)
2 x LNG storage tanks of 125,000m

/ tank
Equipment list developed by process
Layout philosophy:
Topsides design to be inherently safe with segregation of hazardous
and non hazardous system
LQ and utility areas located upwind of process facilities
Fire / blast wall provided between process and utility areas
Topsides modules split into system packages to reduce interface and
hook-up and allow parallel fabrication activities

Weight/Cost Estimate:
Reference Case is As-Built figures for a comparable Regasification facility,
scaled to 2010 price-level figures.
The above figures exclude the cost of GBS:
The GBS size for the Base Case is same as for Reference case hence
GBS costs are excluded for comparision
Evaluation Summary :
The cost of new Regasification terminal (with CO
2
separation) is comparable
with the existing Regas terminals without CO
2
capture.
