Abstract
The liquefaction process for LNG has
been a key area that has constantly
required continued development to save
costs and increase LNG plant capacity.
This review cover the current LNG
technology and how it is being further
developed. It was expected that by
the end of 2012, there will be 100
liquefaction Trains on stream worldwide
with total capacity of 297.2 million
tonnes per annum.
The majority of these Trains use
either APCI or Cascade technology for
the liquefaction process.
The other processes, used in a small
minority of some liquefaction plants
include Shell's DMR technology and the
Linde technology
