Abstract
A method for producing a blended mixture of liquefied natural gases to meet the particular requirements of an operator at a production facility, application site or a fueling station by blending together a lean liquefied natural gas and a rich liquefied natural gas. The operator can control through a device such as a heat exchange blending system the composition of the end product mixed liquefied natural gas for its intended end use.
Claims29
A method for producing a blended liquefied natural gas composition comprising mixing a lean liquefied natural gas and a rich liquefied natural gas in a liquefied natural gas supply chain.
The method as claimed in 1 wherein the lean liquefied natural gas and the rich liquefied natural gas are produced by a liquefied natural gas production plant.
A method for producing a fuel having a pre-determined Wobbe Index comprising a blended liquefied natural gas composition comprising mixing a lean liquefied natural gas and a rich liquefied natural gas.
The method as claimed in 16 wherein the lean liquefied natural gas and the rich liquefied natural gas are produced by a liquefied natural gas production plant.
