In the 20th Offshore Symposium of Texas SNAME we presented a hybrid method which coupled a Vortex-Lattice Method (VLM) solver with a Reynolds...

... Multiple development options are currently available for the production of LNG with the gas extracted from ultra-deepwater gas reservoirs. The main are (a) Subsea-to-Beach coupled with onshore LNG - with or without late-field-life gas compression; (b) Dry-tree/ Wet-tree Host coupled with onshore...

... Traditional LNG offloading arms technologies have been used for LNG transfers in open waters, while hose-based technologies for both side-by-side transfers in calm seas and tandem transfers in rough sea conditions are nearing maturity. However, the offloading arms are not fully utilized for side...

... Slow speed engines in LNG Carriers means introduction of an excitation source with forces of considerably magnitude acting over a wide range of frequencies. A vibration study of a large LNG Carrier (235K m 3 ) with spherical tanks reveals that the response of the containment system caused...

... The impact pressure due to sloshing motion in the liquid cargo hold is one of the most important load factors when designing new liquid cargo hold and containment system for membrane-type LNG carriers. The magnitude, effective area and duration of the impact load are all important when...

... countries are requiring companies not to flare gas. Some countries have built large facilities to turn the gas into LNG; for example, Nigeria, Algeria, Indonesia and Qatar, and these facilities have been based on large base loads. Typical LNG train sizes have been in the range of 3.0 million tonnes a year...

... In the paper some principal concerns are voiced on the field layout of the GBS LNG receiving terminals that are currently proposed for the Gulf of Mexico. The paper describes the design of a Single Point Mooring (SPM) system for ‘ship to shore’ transfer of LNG in shallow water. The system can...

... The cost and complexity of LNG infrastructure requires detailed evaluation for each project. Although component costs and capabilities are known, deterministic analysis does not assess the complex and inter-related nature of the LNG distribution system. To properly assess the impact...
