FLOATING LNG PLANT COMPRISING A FIRST AND A SECOND CONVERTED LNG CARRIER AND A METHOD FOR OBTAINING THE FLOATING LNG PLANT

摘要

The present invention relates to a floating LNG plant (1) comprising a first (10) and a second (20) modified LNG carrier having a hull and at least one LNG storage tank (14, 24), respectively. The floating LNG plant includes a connection structure 30 for connecting the hulls of the first (10) and second (20) modified LNG carriers to obtain a double-hull vessel, and for processing LNG on the floating LNG plant. The system further includes a mooring system for moored a floating LNG plant at the seabed, and the at least first (10) and second (20) modified LNG carriers are provided with a plurality of LNG tanks. Each, and at least one LNG tank is removed and/or deactivated from at least one LNG carrier to create space on the floating LNG plant to install process equipment for LNG processing.
