The technology is also applicable to LNG insulated tanks to lower
boil-off gases.
Since the first production in 1996, Qatargas has delivered cargos to 31 countries and also operates the Jetty
Boil-Off Gas facility, Al Khaleej Gas, two Helium Plants, the two Laffan Refineries (among the largest condensate refineries in the world), and the Ras Laffan Terminal.
There is also a problem concerning containment of the smallest molecule we know of at up to 700bar as hydrogen will 'evaporate' through most common materials, and even highly insulated tanks must allow for a '
boil-off 'of up to 5% of the contents daily to prevent over-pressurisation at lower pressures.
Since they would contain volatile and often cryogenic liquids, they were painted white to reflect the hot Florida sun at Cape Kennedy, to reduce the amount of
boil-off, while waiting for lift-off.
He said this MoU to establish a company for the generation of electricity from solar power is a continuation of QP's environmental commitment demonstrated by various environmental projects, such as the reduction of gas flaring and greenhouse gas emissions, and the Jetty
Boil-off Gas Recovery project.
When fuel oil is used to supplement
Boil-Off Gas (BOG) as a fuel for the ship's propulsion and energy systems, Eniram Engine TM will provide guidance only with this mixed fuel usage.
Qatargas' Jetty
Boil-Off Gas (JBOG) recovery facility has achieved a major milestone marking its 1,000th loading with the LNG Ship, Rasheeda.
The contract covers basic engineering design of the process plant; BED and detailed engineering design of LNG tanks; and procurement of key equipment such as the main cryogenic heat exchanger, mixed refrigerant compressor,
boil-off gas compressor, LNG in-tank pumps, cryogenic control and on-off valves.
The plant will consist of 1.3m Nm3/day LNG train (0.35 Mtpa) and a 0.3m Nm3/day Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) station and pursuant to the contract, the company will provide basic engineering design (BED) of the process plant, BED and detailed engineering design of a LNG tank, procurement of key equipment including the main cryogenic heat exchanger, mixed refrigerant compressor,
boil-off gas compressor, LNG in-tank pumps, cryogenic control and on-off valves.
