Natural Gas Power FAQ's

In LNG liquefaction plants, meticulous maintenance of equipment is vital. It ensures operational continuity, safety, and efficiency. Regular upkeep prevents costly unplanned outages, safeguards against hazardous conditions, and maintains the integrity of the high-pressure systems. This vigilance is essential for the plant’s longevity and reliability, guaranteeing a consistent supply chain from production to delivery.

In LNG plants, a range of rotating equipment is key to operations. This includes centrifugal refrigerant compressors, the core of the plant, steam and gas turbines driving these compressors, and electric motors for powering machinery. Additionally, LNG and hydrocarbon pumps manage liquid movement, while lube oil pumps and fin fans maintain equipment efficiency. These components are crucial for the plant’s liquefaction process, ensuring smooth and efficient production.

Avoiding unexpected downtime is essential for the smooth operation of LNG plants. While each facility has its own output pace, proactive asset health monitoring allows for scheduled maintenance over emergency fixes. Implementing a condition monitoring system boosts operational time and curtails interruptions. Predictive maintenance of equipment and processes yields considerable advantages. Advancements in technology empower LNG operations with enhanced intelligence, enabling concurrent surveillance of plants and machinery. This minimizes idle time and slashes expenses by strategically assessing operational risks to inform decision-making.
