Zusammenfassung:A method for producing liquefied natural gas and a stream of liquid nitrogen including step a): producing gaseous nitrogen in an air separation unit; step b): liquefying a stream of natural gas in a natural gas liquefaction unit including a main heat exchanger and a system for producing cold; step c): liquefying the nitrogen stream resulting from step a) in the main exchanger of the natural gas liquefaction unit in parallel with the liquefied natural gas in step b); wherein all the cold necessary for liquefying the stream of nitrogen and for liquefying the natural gas is supplied by the system for producing cold of the natural gas liquefaction unit.
