SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VAPORISING LIQUIFIED NATURAL GAS FOR MEASUREMENT THEREOF

A method of vaporising liquefied natural gas (LNG) for measurement of its constituent components may include receiving LNG from a main pipeline into a pressurising device. The method may also include via the pressurising device, pressurising a the LNG beyond a critical pressure thereof. The method m...

Zusammenfassung:	A method of vaporising liquefied natural gas (LNG) for measurement of its constituent components may include receiving LNG from a main pipeline into a pressurising device. The method may also include via the pressurising device, pressurising a the LNG beyond a critical pressure thereof. The method may further include directing a first portion of the pressurised LNG to a heater. The method may still further include via the heater, heating the first portion of pressurised LNG beyond a critical temperature thereof, and directing the pressurised and heated LNG to a vaporising device. The method may also include via the vaporising device, depressurising the heated LNG to a pressure below the critical pressure so as to vaporise the LNG.
