Title:
STATION FOR REDUCING GAS PRESSURE AND LIQUEFYING GAS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/128408
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a station comprising: an expansion turbine 12; means for recovering mechanical work (G) produced during the gas pressure reduction in the expansion turbine; a cooling system (6) comprising compression means (C1, C2, C3); condensation means (14) for liquefying gas (G11) using the cold provided by the cooling system; means for recovering heat produced by the compression means (C1, C2, C3) of the cooling system and means (10) for heating the gas upstream of the expansion turbine that are associated with the heat-recovery means.
