LNG (liquefied natural gas) satellite station

JFE Engineering is engaged in engineering, procurement and construction services for LNG satellite stations.
LNG Satellite Stations are facilities that treat LNG transported from major LNG receiving stations by way of tank trucks or trains. This system consists of LNG storage tanks, vaporizers, calorie control devices, etc. Based on our EPC experience, JFE Engineering can propose the best solutions for our clients.

Description of equipment LNG storage tank: 300 KL
LNG vaporizer: 2 tons/h x 2 units
Description of equipment LNG storage tank: 125 KL × 2 units 1
LNG vaporizer: 0.6 ton/h × 2 units

Best solutions for heavy users of energy to convert fuel to natural gas
Packaged-type LNG satellite equipment achieves high reliability, low cost, and short term delivery

Features

Standardized compact LNG satellite systems

  • 30% cost down has been achieved compared with conventional systems.
  • As a result of the reduction of the delivery period of component units and of the construction work period, the minimum delivery period for the facilities is nine months.
    Shortening the component delivery and construction work periods makes a minimum delivery period of nine months possible.
  • A wide variety of options are available according to client needs.
