LNG Plant Implements Control Valve to Improve MCHE Performance
2 PagesThe producer was experiencing LNG production rate loss due to the poor regulation by the JT control valves in the plant. Due to this, the MCHE was running sub-optimally and maximum licensor controller benefits couldn’t be realized. When the MCHE ran manually, it resulted in higher operator load and vigilance to manage the plant, increasing the possibility of human error that the operator couldn’t practically manage under all scenarios. Due to poor regulation of the JT control valve, the MCHE cool down was done in manual mode, increasing the cool down time and impacting the LNG throughput of the plant.
