BASIC DESIGN OF PYEONGTAEK LNG RECEIVING TERMINAL-II OF KOREA GAS CORPORATION

摘要

The existing Pyeongtaek LNG receiving terminal I of Korea Gas Corporation (KOGAS) is the first LNG terminal in Korea which was constructed on a partially reclaimed land and started the commercial operation in 1986. This terminal has a storage capacity of 1,000,000 m3 in 10x100,000 m3 membrane containment LNG storage tanks and a gasification capacity of 2,020 ton/hour. rnKOGAS decided to construct the Pyeongteak LNG terminal II on a new reclaimed area located at the north of the existing LNG terminal I. This terminal will be designed for 10 LNG storage tanks and a vaporization capacity of 720 ton/hour. The first phase construction will be done from 2003 to 2008 for 4 LNG storage tanks of 140,000 m3 and gasification process of 720 ton/hour. The jetty No.1 constructed in 1986 for the LNG terminal I will be newly assigned to the terminal II for unloading LNG. The send-out process can be extended to a capacity of 1,440 ton/hour. rnThis paper outlines the basic design and features of the Pyeongtaek LNG terminal II conducted by KOGAS. Some important considerations are taken for a smooth linkage with the existing terminal I and efficient dealing with boil-off gas produced in the terminal I and II.
