What are the process steps that the Natural Gas passes through from the underground well to the LNG ship's tanks as liquid ❓ The Raw feed gas from the underground well is sent to the liquefaction plant 💧 : 1️⃣ Condensate removal - It is first stripped of condensates. 2️⃣ Acid gas and Mercury removal - It is then followed by the removal of acides gases Carbon dioxide CO² and Hydrogen sulphide H²S. Carbon dioxide must be removed as it freezes ❄ at a temperature above the atmospheric boiling point of LNG 👉-60°C and the toxic compound hydrogen sulphide is removed as it causes 👉 atmospheric pollution when being burnt 🔥 is a fuel. 3️⃣ Dehydration - Acid gas removal saturates the gas stream with water vapour 💭 and this is then removed by the dehydration unit. 4️⃣ Fractionation - The gas then passes to a fractionating unit where the 👉 NGLs are removed and further split into Propane and Butane. 5️⃣ Liquefaction - Finally, the main gas flow, now mostly Methane, is liquefied 💧 into the end product Liquefied Natural Gas LNG and stored in tanks 🏢 ready to be loaded into LNG ships. |  Source : McGuire & White |
