Subject Matter Expert: Steven Vitale, P.E., PhD
In LNG, An Intermediate Level Course, Session 4 of 10 (Video on Demand) , you'll learn ...
- BOG production when unloading an LNG ship
- Shakespeare’s question, “To circulate or not to circulate”? BOG production via LNG circulation.
- The strangely low BOG production rate when N2 is in the LNG
- The energy needed to manage BOG
Overview
LNG plants and other petrochemical plants are built to bring a return on investment to their investors through their safe operation. Their designers and engineer-led operators require technical knowledge to ensure these facilities are safe and reliable. This course series gives you that knowledge.
This training covers LNG technologies at both a technical and human resource development level. This training is needed to help you design, operate, or maintain an LNG facility; however, many LNG topics can also apply to other petrochemical plants. This training is intended to present technical materials to help develop a clear understanding of an LNG facility's safe and efficient operation. It is intended to give the learner the intermediate technical knowledge needed to make informed planning, maintenance, and operating decisions to ensure plant safety, reliability, and efficiency. The most crucial intention of this training is to give you technical knowledge on how to continue making the liquid natural gas industry safe and reliable.
This is the fourth in a series of ten progressively more in-depth courses on Liquefied Natural Gas. In the ten lesson series, more detail will be given on the operation of an LNG plant, refrigeration systems for liquefying, and the thermodynamics involved in producing, storing, transporting, and re-vaporizing LNG.
For this intermediate-level course series, the learner must have a basic knowledge of LNG and its uses.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Describe general information about BOG production and its associated hazards.
- Explain phenomena associated with BOG production.
- Describe BOG production during the unloading of an LNG ship.
- Explain the practice of reducing tank pressure by one psig before the low barometric pressure expected from a forecast hurricane.
- Analyze the effect of LNG circulation on BOG production.
- Describe BOG composition.
- Explain the unusually low BOG production rate when N2 is present in LNG.
- Describe the use of a recondenser.
- Explain BOG production during liquefaction.
Video on Demand
This course is a recorded version of a live lecture and will be streamed directly to your computer's media player. Our format is generally compatible with media players included with all computers and mobile devices. After watching the video presentation, you will return to your account to take the online quiz. While this is a recording of a live presentation, please note that this recording will not qualify as a "live" or "interactive" continuing education activity in those jurisdictions where it is required.
Certificate of Completion
You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 10 questions. PDH credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
