Storage and regasification of liquefied natural gas : master’s thesis

Prirodni plin se sve češće koristi u svjetskoj opskrbi energijom. Kako bi se odjednom prevezla što veća količina plina pristupilo se tehnologiji ukapljivanja prirodnog plina. Glavni element terminala za ukapljivanje kao i terminala za uplinjavanje su spremnici za ukapljeni prirodni plin. Prilikom projektiranja prihvatnih terminala potrebno je uzeti u obzir niz čimbenika koji utječu na trajanje procesa, izgradnju te kapitalne troškove. Uz spremnike najvažniji dio prihvatnih terminala je sustav uplinjavanja ukapljenog prirodnog plina.Abstract: Natural gas is increasingly used in the world's energy supply. To transport large volumes of natural gas to distant markets, the technology of liquefaction of natural gas has been developed. The main element of the terminal for the liquefaction and regasification terminals are tanks for liquefied natural gas. While designing the receiving terminals, a number of factors must be considered. Each of them influences the duration of the process, the building methodology used as well as the capital cost. Beside tanks, the most important part of the receiving terminal is the regasification system
