The purpose of the Acid Gas Removal Unit is to remove acid gas, mainly Carbon Dioxide CO2 and Hydrogen Sulphide H2S, from the natural gas feed to prevent these components from freezing out and causing blockages and to meet LNG specification. Acid gas, mainly CO2 and H2S, is removed from the gas stream by absorption into aMDEA in the Acid Gas Absorber (12-MD21), licensed by BASF.This will reduce the CO2 < 50 ppm. Regeneration System in which the rich aMDEA from 12-MD21 is flashed in Rich Solvent LP Flash Column (12-MD22), to remove the adsorbed hydrocarbons and then the CO2 is stripped from the rich aMDEA at reduced pressure and elevated temperatures in the Solvent Regenerator Column (12-MD27).

The purpose of the Dehydration Unit is to remove water from the treating gas leaving the Acid Gas Removal Unit. Drying is required to prevent ice and hydrate formation in the Liquefaction Unit, which would cause blockage of lines and equipment The feed gas to Unit 13 is wet Natural Gas from the Acid Gas Removal Unit. The gas is precooled upstream of Unit 13 in the Drier Precooler (13-MC01) which results in condensation of part of the water vapour contained in the gas. This reduces the load on the Dehydration Unit. The temperature of the feed gas exiting the Drier Precooler (13-MC01) is 64.5 bar and is maintained at 22 C, a temperature high enough to avoid Hydrate formation but low enough to condense a significant amount of water . In the adsorption, the feed gas from the Drier Inlet Separator (13-MD01) flows vertically down to two of the Molecular Sieve Driers (13-MD02A/B/C). The treated Presley Wong gas from the adsorption beds must meet a moisture content of 0.5 ppmv maximum. In the regeneration, the molecular sieve beds are regenerated one at 19/06/2003 a time using regeneration gas, which is normally supplied from the HP End Flash Gas Compressor Aftercooler (15-MC10) at 29 bar and 35 C, flowing

Fractionation Unit
The purposes of the Liquefaction Unit are to liquefy the treated gas to enable storage at near atmospheric pressures & to remove heavy hydrocarbons in the feed stream, which will freeze in the cryogenic sections of the unit (for rich gas case). For the rich gas case, the pre-cooled two-phase mixture in the dry gas containing aromatics and other heavy hydrocarbons from the Feed Gas / HP & MP Propane Coolers (15-MC-01 and 15-MC02) are formed and removed in the Scrub Column (15-MD01). The vapour overhead from 15-MD01 is cooled at 29.7 C and partially condensed in the Scrub Column Overhead Condenser (15-MD03) against LP propane. This stream is further cooled and condensed in the warm bundle of the MCHE. The two-phase stream exiting the warm bundle of the MCHE is phase separated in the Scrub Column Reflux Drum (15MD02). This reflux drum temperature is controlled at 61 C using bypass line across the MCHE warm bundle with part of the warm feed gas. The liquid is returned to the Scrub Column as reflux using the Scrub Column Reflux Pump (15-MJ01). The liquid stream from the scrub column bottoms is fed to the fractionation unit to generate refrigerant make-up and a condensate product. This combined stream is further cooled, liquefied and sub-cooled at about 148 C against MR in the middle and cold bundles of the MCHE. The liquefied natural gas at about 148 C, 47.5 bara is let down over LNG Expander (15-MJ02) and FV 1057A/B to about 1.2 bara. At this pressure some re-flash occurs and LNG temperature drops to about 159 C. The LNG enters LNG Flash Drum (15-MD03). The flash vapour is reheated in LMR / End Flash Gas Heat Exchanger (15Presley Wong MC06) and send to the suction of End Flash Compressor (15-MJ04) to be recompressed for use as fuel. The LNG is pumped to storage using LNG Product Pump (15-MJ03). 23/06/2003 Design feed gas rate to Main Cryogenic Heat Exchanger (MCHE) is 170000 m3/d (15300 ton/d) & LNG rundown to LNG storage is 33600 m3/d (14200 ton/d).

The purposes of the Storage and Loading Unit are to provide adequate storage and loading facilities to allow for continuous production of LNG at the design production rate & to enable intermittent export by LNG ship. The LNG storage tanks (capacity = 150,000 m3) are stored at slight above atmospheric pressure for safety reason. The unit is designed to operate in two modes: holding mode and loading mode. In holding mode LNG is rundown from Train 1 into either two of the LNG storage tanks. During loading mode there is simultaneous LNG rundown from Train 1 and LNG loading from both storage tanks to the LNG ship. To achieve the design LNG ship loading rate of 12,000m/h Presley Wong six LNG loading pumps are provided; 71-MJ01A/B/C and 71-MJ02A/B/C. Each pump is a submerged type pump located in vertical wells within the LNG storage tanks and is 23/06/2003 rated for 2000m/h. Three pumps are provided in each tank.. It takes approx. 4.5 days to fill up one LNG storage tank & 13 hrs to fill up one LNG tanker.

The purpose of the Propane Refrigerant Circuit is used to supply refrigeration cooling to the natural gas feed circuit and mixed refrigerant circuit at four pressure levels in a closed loop. Propane from the discharge of the Propane Compressor (16-MJ04) at 18.0 Bar and 68.3 C is de superheated and condensed by ambient air in the Propane Condenser (16-MC09). The condensed propane at 17.1 Bar and 50.0 C is collected in the Propane Accumulator Presley Wong (16-MD06). The propane liquid from 16-MD06 is sub cooled in the Propane Sub-cooler (16-MC10) before being supplied to the natural gas & mixed 23/06/2003 refrigerant (MR) evaporators. To produce one ton of LNG, 3.5 tons of propane is required to provide refrigeration cooling.

The purpose of the Mixed Refrigerant Circuit in conjunction with Propane Circuit is used to provide refrigeration cooling required for natural gas in Main Cryogenic Heat Exchanger (MCHE). The refrigerant used to liquefy the feed gas is a mixture of nitrogen, methane, ethane and propane, known as mixed refrigerant (MR). The MR circuit is a closed refrigeration loop. The superheated MR from the Main Cryogenic Heat Exchanger (MCHE); 15-MC05 is compressed by LP MR Compressor 16-MJ01, MP MR Compressor 16-MJ02 and HP MR Compressor 16-MJ03 in series. High pressure vapours from the MR Compressor are cooled in the HP MR Compressor Aftercooler; 16-MC03 and partially condensed in the respective MR / HHP, MR / HP, MR / MP and MR / LP Propane Coolers and fed to the HP MR Separator 16-MD08. Liquid from 16-MD08 (heavy MR) is cooled further in the "warm" bundle of the MCHE and by the let down in pressure through the MR Liquid Expander; 16-MJ06, recovering electrical power, and then sprayed over the "middle" bundle of the MCHE as a cooling medium. Most of the vapours from 16-MD08 (light MR) pass through both the "warm", "middle and "cold" bundles of the MCHE, and are let down over the "cold" Joule-Thomson (J-T) valve; 16-CrV-1035 to achieve the minimum required temperature. Prior to entering the MCHE shell side, this light MR stream is combined with the pre-cooled light MR stream in the MR/End Flash Gas Heat Exchanger; 15-MC06 where the MR is heat exchanged with 15-MD03 overheads vapour. The combined light MR stream is sprayed over Presley Wong the "cold" bundle of the MCHE as a cooling medium. Vapourised MR from the MCHE is recycled to the LP MR Compressor; 16-MJ01 via The LP MR Suction Drum; 16-MD01. Nitrogen, Methane and 23/06/2003 Propane are injected into the MR stream to the LP MR Suction Drum; 16-MD01 and Ethane is injected into the HP-MP Seperator, 16-MD08 as required, to maintain system inventory and composition.

The purpose of the Fractionation Unit is to remove heavier hydrocarbons from feed gas that will affect the length of the carbon chain, C5+, specification of the LNG product. In addition, aromatics, Benzene specially, are removed as these may freeze in cryogenic sections of the plant. When operating, the Fractionation Unit reinjects lighter, recovered hydrocarbons (LPG) into the Liquefaction Unit to be blended into the LNG Product, or recycled through the Scrub Column, 15-MD01, depending on operational Presley Wong requirements. In addition, it produces both ethane and propane of refrigerant grade quality for make-up to the Propane and MR Compressor Circuits, and a condensate 03/07/2003 product stream, which will vary in quality depending upon whether the Depentaniser is operating.
