Liquid Natural Gas Power Generation

LNG is natural gas cooled to a liquid state at approximately -260 degrees Fahrenheit. At its liquefied state, natural gas is easier to handle and transport to long distances. LNG also creates more opportunities for widespread distribution and usage in remote locations or areas with challenging terrain.

With LNG power generation, the liquefied gas must be converted back to its gaseous state through regasification or vaporization. It powers dual, steam, and gas turbines to produce megawatts of clean power as a gas.

What to Consider When Using LNG to Generate Power 

Using liquefied natural gas for power generation is crucial in the following situations:

• Temporary power on project sites
• Primary electricity source in isolated locations, islands, areas with rough terrains, and places without connection to the gas grid or infrastructure
• As backup power for peak shaving, and meeting increased power demands when the supply is limited

Before you can use LNG to generate energy, you’ll need transportation trailers, cryogenic storage tanks, and regasification equipment, all of which are necessary for the safe and effective handling and use of LNG.

Safety is of the utmost importance when it comes to dealing with LNG. Rest assured that if you choose to utilize LNG for energy, we will ensure your safety and security.
