Abstract

Une méthode pour accélérer la formation dun mélange de gaz naturel à partir dun pipeline de transmission ou dune chambre daccumulation sans que la production de gaz naturel liquéfié soit immédiatement nécessaire. Le mélange utilise du méthane et au moins un hydrocarbure léger (éthane, propane, butane), ou une combinaison dhydrocarbures légers, comme « solvants ». Le mélange est liquéfié lorsquil sort du pipeline ou de la chambre daccumulation grâce à leffet Joule Thompson. Il est refroidi jusquà ce quil atteigne une température entre -63 °C et -84 °C, puis entreposé dans des conditions dentreposage en lot, soit sous une pression entre 3080 kPa et 7190 kPa et à une température entre -63 °C et -84 °C.
