Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a method of operating a regasification terminal, comprising: a) obtaining a re-gas stream (10) of LNG from one or more LNG storage tanks (1), b) passing the re-gas stream (10) through a regasifier unit (20), c) receiving a feed stream (40) of pressurized LNG, d) generating a cooling stream (11) comprising at least a portion of the re-gas stream (10), e) processing the feed stream (40) of pressurized LNG at the second pressure into a processed feed stream (43) comprising LNG by expanding the feed stream (40) and cooling the feed stream (40) against the cooling stream (11), f) passing the processed feed stream (43) to at least one of the LNG storage tanks (1).
