LNG STORAGE & REGASIFICATION

Reliable gas delivery,beyond the pipeline.

Customised and turnkey LNG receiving, storage and regasification infrastructure for industrial customers. LAIMEX provides engineering, EPC, commissioning, O&M and technical consultancy for the facility; we do not supply LNG or natural gas.

INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS

Infrastructure developed around the end-user duty

Storage, vaporisation, pressure control and redundancy are selected from the customer’s real demand profile, LNG logistics, site conditions and required operating continuity.

01

Industrial Process Heat

LNG storage and regasification infrastructure for boilers, furnaces, ovens, dryers and other industrial thermal loads requiring controlled natural-gas delivery.

  • Load and turndown assessment
  • Stable delivery pressure
  • Process tie-in planning
  • Operational autonomy
02

Captive Power Generation

Facilities developed around generator or turbine fuel-gas flow, pressure, temperature, gas quality, start-up behaviour and continuity requirements.

  • Dynamic demand review
  • Pressure stability
  • Redundancy strategy
  • Backup-power integration
03

Remote & Multi-user Facilities

Central LNG receiving and regasification systems for industrial clusters or locations beyond practical pipeline access, subject to the approved distribution model.

  • Shared storage concept
  • Distribution interfaces
  • Metering by user
  • Phased expansion
04

Backup & Peak-duty Systems

LNG infrastructure configured to supplement another gas route, support planned interruptions or cover defined peak-demand periods.

  • Changeover philosophy
  • Standby readiness
  • Storage preservation
  • Periodic functional testing

TYPICAL PROCESS PATH

From tanker unloading to controlled industrial gas delivery

The final process arrangement, operating pressures, vaporizer type, redundancy and safeguards are defined by the project-specific basis of design and applicable requirements.

PBU vaporizer

Builds and maintains the LNG tank pressure needed for stable liquid withdrawal and process operation.

BOG vaporizer

Warms boil-off gas for controlled pressure management and practical utilisation within the approved facility design.

EAG vaporizer

Safely warms cold emergency or vented cryogenic streams before discharge through the designed vent system.

FIELD EQUIPMENT

EQUIPMENT & SYSTEMS

A complete facility, not disconnected packages

LAIMEX coordinates process duty, package interfaces, piping, electrical, instrumentation, controls, safety and maintainability across the complete installation.

Tanker unloading system

Unloading bay, flexible hoses or arms, tanker and site connections, transfer or offloading pump skid, isolation, ESD, earthing and drainage.

Cryogenic LNG storage

Horizontal or vertical vacuum-insulated tanks with level and pressure instrumentation, pressure protection, isolation, impounding and tank-management connections.

Process vaporizers

Ambient, water-bath or other suitable vaporisation systems selected for flow, ambient conditions, turndown, icing behaviour, duty cycle and redundancy.

PBU, BOG & EAG vaporizers

Dedicated pressure-building, boil-off-gas and emergency ambient gas systems integrated for tank stability, gas utilisation and safe cryogenic handling.

PRMS & metering

Filtration, heating where required, multi-stage pressure regulation, slam-shut protection, relief, flow metering and gas delivery control.

Gas distribution interface

Downstream headers, isolation, pressure and temperature monitoring, optional odorisation and tie-ins to boilers, furnaces, generators or other loads.

PLC, HMI & SCADA

Integrated controls, permissives, alarms, trends, interlocks, data logging, remote supervision and operational reporting across the complete facility.

ESD & F&G systems

Emergency shutdown stations, gas and flame detection, audible and visual alarms, cause-and-effect logic, fire protection and safe-state actions.

Utilities & infrastructure

Foundations, pipe racks, hazardous-area electrical systems, earthing, lightning protection, instrument utilities, drainage, access and maintenance provisions.

CAPACITY & RELIABILITY

Sized as one connected operating system

Tank capacity alone does not define facility performance. Logistics, unloading, vaporisation, pressure control, BOG management, utilities and end-user demand must work together.

Gas demand

Hourly and daily consumption, start-up peaks, turndown, pressure, temperature and future load growth.

Storage autonomy

Tanker payload, delivery distance, logistics reliability, usable tank volume and the required operating reserve.

Unloading strategy

Tanker pressure, pump capacity, transfer time, unloading frequency, bay access and safe connection philosophy.

Vaporizer duty

Ambient temperature, humidity, icing, defrost or changeover philosophy, redundancy and continuous operating duration.

Pressure control

PRMS capacity, turndown, stage arrangement, protection, metering accuracy and end-user pressure stability.

BOG management

Heat ingress, tank operating pressure, consumption profile, holding time and practical BOG utilisation route.

Availability

Equipment redundancy, maintenance access, critical spares, backup utilities and operating competency.

Future expansion

Space, foundations, common headers, controls, electrical capacity and tie-ins for phased development.

SAFETY & OPERABILITY

Designed for cryogenic service and dependable operation

Safe LNG facilities depend on engineered safeguards, verified automation, disciplined commissioning and competent operations. These requirements are developed together from the beginning.
