In LNG applications, the reliability and controllability of the gas compression process is critical to achieving stability in the main process parameters. However, LNG applications pose unique challenges, placing them among the most demanding services for antisurge control and antisurge valves. Although many technologies exist for optimising aspects such as antisurge control and antisurge valve positioning, these functionalities are typically siloed, resulting in missed opportunities for efficiency.
Achieving stability and efficiency in LNG applications requires new approaches to operating main refrigeration compressors. This article describes the functionality, testing and proven benefits of integrating the antisurge control and antisurge positioner technologies developed by CCC and IMI Critical.
