Rotork GP Actuators Selected for Asian LNG Terminal

摘要

GP-range pneumatic actuators have been installed at a South Korean liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal. The terminal houses four LNG storage tanks, each capable of storing up to 52.8 million gallons, a 45,000-ton liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) tank and a regasification plant. Rotork has been providing actuators at the terminal since it was first constructed, with more than 100 electric and pneumatic actuators installed during the initial front end engineering (FEED) phase of development. Additional actuators have now been installed as part of the site's phase 2-2 expansion, with further electric and pneumatic actuators due for installation later this year. The actuators have been installed on the terminal's 32-inch (813-mm) main pipeline where they will perform an open/close function, which is used for the flow of both LNG and natural gas in its gaseous form.
