Speaking at Gastech 2017, the company presented designs incorporating standardized equipment to deliver a scalable LNG delivery platform and a fit-for-purpose, onshore modular regasification unit. These ‘plug and play’ packages, based on standard solutions, are built in AG&P’s dedicated, state-of-the-art, 150-hectare modularization facilities, which helps speed delivery times and significantly reduces the cost of customized engineering and project man-hours while increasing productivity and quality. Cost-effective and built for transportation across the world, AG&P believes these off-the-shelf products have the potential to bolster the small and mid-scale LNG market. Key benefits include:
Scalable LNG delivery platform
* AG&P has focused on optimizing the storage and marine design to drive cost efficiencies and adoption
* Selection of shallow draft barge design and conventional vessel hull design allow for fixed cost hull construction over a scalable range, typically:
- Platform 1: 4,000 to 8,000m³ capacity for shallow water delivery
- Platform 2: 6,000 to 16,500m³ for open water delivery
- Utilizes identical hull design and equipment from 6,000, 7,500, 10,000 up to 16,500m³
* Products utilize existing GTT hull designs specifically configured to optimize membrane tank configuration
* Geometrical membrane tanks are standardized which reduces re-engineering costs
* Detailed designs are completed by AGP/GET, integrating standardized equipment/technologies and prefabricated in our manufacturing facilities in Manila, Philippines,
* All kits, including accommodation fitments and bridge equipment are standardized packages
Onshore modular, standardized regasification unit
* Modularized and pre-commissioned in our state-of-the-art facilities in the Philippines
* Each unit consists of:
- TEMA NJN plate and tube exchanger utilizing indirect glycol/water heat transfer
- Uses configuration of 125mmscfd process train, typically, in 250mmscfd modularized package
* Each individual 250mmscfd module consists of:
- High-pressure pump
- Tube and shell exchanger
- Boil-off gas (BOG) recondenser
- HIPPS
- ESDV/F&G/CAMS
- Central control room (E-house)
* Off module equipment or shared utilities consisting of:
- Glycol water plate exchanger circuit
- BOG compressor
- LP booster pumps
* All equipment is purchased utilizing an in-house approved vendor list
- Allows competitive pricing based on standard product requiring no re-engineering
- Enables shorter procurement times based on standard product
* Typical schedule -12 months ex-works
“While there is increasing preference for small-scale and mid-scale LNG solutions in emerging economies like Indonesia and India, uptake remains slow with few projects underway. Standardization and modular solutions will be the circuit-breaker that will bring projects online, enabling the switch to LNG as a clean and affordable energy source,†said Mr. Albert Altura, President AG&P.
“AG&P is combining its modularization capabilities and unique alliances with engineering and technology partners to provide the complete spectrum of infrastructure assets that enable LNG distribution and last-mile delivery. Serving as a single point of contact for customers across the LNG value chain, we deliver a whole terminal and sell tolled gas to power plants, mines, bunker fuel operations, transportation fleets, cold storage and other industrial applications,†added Mr. Albert Altura.
AG&P has a long and successful track record of delivering pragmatic solutions for the oil and gas industry with expertise in LNG. It is only one of three companies worldwide to have a global technical and licensing agreement for membrane tank design from the French giant, GTT. In addition, AG&P owns a major stake in GAS Entec, the leading Korea-based engineering firm and has entered a joint venture with Risco Energy Group of Indonesia.
