HQ Magazine Message from Brian Evans 3
The global LNG market is enjoying remarkable growth in demand and production and is currently being re-calibrated. Industry leaders anticipate a 2020 LNG demand forecast of 405mpta, which implies a robust annual growth of around six per cent. While Australia has been the recent focus of greenfield LNG investment, we see North America receiving the increasing attention in the coming three to five years, followed by East Africa and then the Middle East.
WorleyParsons has a proud history in each phase of the extensive LNG market—from industry leadership in pre-feasibility studies that assess optimal investment options through to ground breaking modularization solutions and then on-going plant operation support. WorleyParsons currently provides services on LNG plants that total 40% of global production. Our seven long term contracts service 23 LNG trains.
WorleyParsons is excited to help our customers reach further growth and breakthroughs in the projects they undertake. In this issue of HQ Magazine, we explore LNG solutions that maximize asset potential and poise our customers for future LNG success.
I hope you enjoy this issue and the 2013 LNG 17 Conference. I encourage you to take advantage of the opportunity to speak with one of our LNG 17 team members found on pages 10-13 and hope you’ll also visit us at future events.”

Pioneering a new safety innovation technology with Imperial Oil
WorleyParsonsCord, our modularization and fabrication construction division, is using radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology to pilot groundbreaking safety measures.
RFID technology uses a wireless, non-contact system to transfer data between a tag attached to an object and a networked system. The tag contains electronically stored information which can be read from up to several meters away.
WorleyParsonsCord is pioneering the use of this technology in its field. This is the first time that the Scan-Link RFID technology has been used for workplace safety purposes at a modularization and fabrication company anywhere in North America.
The team at the WorleyParsonsCord modularization yards in Edmonton has been using the technology to reduce the chance of injury to workers caused by most mobile lifting equipment.
Patrick Lavin, manager of the Edmonton modularization yard, says RFID strips are being placed on the hard hats worn by employees. These strips will then communicate with an RFID networked system built into the different mobile lifting equipment on the work site.
“When any person wearing a hard hat goes behind a machine, a sensor on the machine beeps. There’s an alarm and visual LED light in the cab of the machine that warns the operator that there is someone behind the equipment.
“We’ll be installing RFID sensors on all of our mobile lifting equipment at the worksite, other than cranes. This includes zoom booms, forklifts and skid steers.”
The cost for implementing this pilot is being shared with WorleyParsonsCord’s customer, Imperial Oil. Discussions are also underway with other customers and partners to agree on further cost-sharing opportunities.
The modularization yards at WorleyParsonsCord operate year-round and are constantly bustling with equipment and human activity. More than 1,000 employees work at the three modularization yards combined, and they have the capacity to build 500 modules per year.

Pipeline Systems Projects in Queensland’s Burgeoning LNG and CSG Market
It is an extraordinary time for WorleyParsons in this market at the moment as we are currently involved in some of the largest liquefied natural gas (LNG) and coal seam gas (CSG) pipeline projects in Queensland. These pipelines are
transporting CSG (including wet gas) directly from the wellheads with the water stream and pipeline-quality dry gas and delivering them to LNG plants.
HQ Magazine Pipeline systems projects in Queensland 15
MAJOR PROJECTS IN QUEENSLANDWe are completing the detailed design of 19 medium- to high-pressure steel gas pipelines ranging from DN300 to DN600 in diameter with a total length of approximately 240 km as part of the EPCM services for the Queensland Curtis LNG (QCLNG) Upstream Project. Additionally, we are responsible for 150 km of cement-lined carbon steel water trunklines and around 6,000 km of polyethylene gas and water gathering networks ranging in diameters from DN160 to DN630. This project is noteworthy due to its sheer size and amazing complexity. WorleyParsons has added value through providing construction services, field survey activities, procurement and detailed engineering all within one team. This has enabled the field survey activities to be targeted to the needs of the designers and the engineering work prioritized to suit the construction program. Involvement of construction people is essential in the detailed design phase—especially in pipeline projects—to ensure the design is both constructible and suited to the installation equipment and methodology to be employed.
> Arrow Energy has awarded the preliminary engineering design of about 1,150 km of gas pipelines for its LNG project to WorleyParsons. This is among the largest pipeline projects in Australia and includes Arrow’s two major pipelines that will transmit natural gas from its gas fields in the Bowen and Surat basins—each more than 500 km—to Gladstone. Arrow CEO, Andrew Faulkner, said “WorleyParsons was chosen for its understanding of our requirements and its availability to complete the work appropriately.”
> In addition to the Midstream Project Pipelines, WorleyParsons is working on the Select phase of the Upstream Arrow LNG Project in the Surat and Bowen basins. Our specialist front-end services draw on real-word project experience in order to support decision making in the
initial stages of projects in order to maximize our customers’ ultimate business outcomes.
> WorleyParsons was instrumental in working with Australia Pacific LNG Project since its inception. Our environmental team, together with the Australia Pacific LNG Project, completed the Environmental Impact Assessment in record time. We are now acting as the Owner’s Engineer for the export pipelines and have performed the FEED and detailed design of the compression facilities and are also supporting the Australia Pacific LNG Project in the gathering network team.
Unlike a traditional EPC approach, which has the potential to result in project conflict, schedule slippage and cost blowouts, undertaking engineering, construction management, procurement and completions, and employing proven systems—a method WorleyParsons embraces—minimizes risks in pipeline systems project delivery.

FLNG Tech Talk:Gas or Steam?
Amin Almasi, WorleyPArsons
HQ Magazine LNG Tech Talk 17
Our rotating machines expert, Amin Almasi explains why aero derivative gas turbines win hands-down over steam for FLNG applications.
The difficulties with onshore LNG projects (particularly long offshore gas pipelines) have renewed the interest in offshore LNG production. The floating LNG (FLNG) production vessel has become the industry innovation in making smaller and more remote offshore natural gas assets commercially viable at plant capacities of around 1 mmtpa to 5 mmtpa. The turbomachineries for FLNG units are discussed and the aero-derivative gas turbine is recommended as the best driver option in this article. Other solutions such as steam turbine drivers could also be employed.
Eco-friendlier
A typical LNG plant requires around 35-55 MW power per 1 mmtpa LNG production capacity. Aero-derivative gas turbines have long been proposed for FLNG and have a number of important advantages over their industrial heavy frame counterparts and other drivers. The smaller carbon footprint of aero-derivative gas turbines is one such advantage that can’t be ignored. Aero-derivative gas turbine sections are modular and light, and the modules can usually be replaced very quickly. Higher thermal efficiency—over 40% (or even sometimes 46%) compared to around 30-35% for a typical industrial heavy frame gas turbine, represents a significant savings on fuel and reduction in carbon emissions.
18 HQ Magazine LNG Tech Talk
The Safety ImperativeSafety issues can impact turbomachine selection, design, development and the layout of an FLNG vessel. Turbomachine arrangement criteria are more stringent than an onshore LNG vessel because of factors such as: • The limited footprint • The light-weight design and the need
for a good weight distribution• The requirement for low dynamic
loads to limit the vibration
The effect of machinery weight (and the dynamic loads) on the extent and weight of supporting structural steel (and the FLNG design) can be significant. Advanced safety protocols are needed for the prevention of incidents—for example, avoidance of leakage and ignition and the hazard mitigation including the fire detection, the gas detection and the emergency shutdown.
FLNG vessels have the highest equipment densities as compared to other onshore or offshore units. This factor substantially increases the potential severity of a serious failure or explosion, which could escalate to a total facility loss. A catastrophic turbomachine failure could cause LNG hull damage and even a large-scale discharge of LNG into the sea. This hull damage (or failure) could be followed by a rapid LNG phase transition, which can cause serious structural damage to the FLNG, including a stability loss.
Operating and maintaining a large FLNG vessel of any design would require a substantial workforce (say above 50 people). The safety for such a large offshore population is a major operating cost and a challenge that cannot be taken lightly.
Amin Almasi is a lead rotating equipment engineer at WorleyParsons. He specializes in rotating machines including centrifugal, screw and reciprocating compressors, gas and steam turbines, pumps, condition monitoring and
reliability. He has authored more than 60 papers and articles dealing with rotating machines.
Electric drivers are onshore, not offshore Electric motor drivers with the combined-cycle power plant solution may be an effective, flexible and suitable solution for onshore LNG plants. However, this solution could not be an attractive option for an FLNG vessel. The justification for the electrical motor drives for an FLNG vessel may not be as strong as anticipated by some vendors. The VSD electric motors need large, heavy equipment and auxiliaries (such as the transformers, VSD units, harmonic filters and others). It is too complex for FLNG. From the perspectives of the equipment size, weight, structural steel and total cost, the aero-derivative gas turbines have an advantage over the large-scale combined-cycle power generation and the VSD electric motor drivers for FLNG applications.
Steam is simple, but how efficient is it?The propulsion in LNG carriers has been run by steam turbines for many years. This steam turbine solution uses boil-off gas (BOG) and another liquid fuel as a back-up for the boiler’s heat source. The technology is well developed, flexible, reliable and simple, and the simplicity of it is highlighted by supporters of this solution. The steam turbine is proposed by some important players for FLNG compressor drivers, however, the overall efficiency is relatively low.
Aero-derivative gas turbines can be used as “the best option” for an FLNG with a relatively high efficiency. In addition to weight, space and design characteristics, there are many operational advantages which prioritize the aero-derivative drivers for an FLNG unit. Since aero-derivative gas turbines are based on aircraft engines, they are more suitable for floating or moving units. For example, the dynamic motion could prevent proper return (or supply) of the lubrication oil for the sensitive hydrodynamic bearings of the heavy industrial frame gas turbines (or other rotating machines). On the other hand, for an aero-derivative gas turbine, generally, the rolling-element bearings are used and proper systems are developed to avoid any lubrication oil return problems in a floating unit. Aero-derivative gas turbines could result in a slightly higher initial price compared to other solutions, however, due to relatively high efficiencies, the time until the return on that investment is realized could be less than one year.
Active magnetic bearings could be a reliable and modern solution for FLNG compressors. Compared to oil-lubricated machines, they reduce the footprint and weight, simplify operation and ensure that the process gas cannot be contaminated with the lubrication oil.

US natural gas: a decade of chaosJust 10 years ago, the clarion call of US energy prognosticators and regulators was that the US was running out of natural gas. As a result, the industry began scouring the coasts of the United States for sites to build liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminals, and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) were overwhelmed with proposals and permit applications to build onshore and offshore regasification terminals. Natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGLs) prices reached uneconomic levels for many industries, many manufacturers invested in foreign facilities to minimize costs and utilities began to look favorably at coal and nuclear energy for base load power production as natural gas prices soared from $2/MMBtu to peaks exceeding $15/MMBtu.
Although the presence of shale and tight gas seams had been well established for many years (shallow, small-scale horizontal drilling and fracturing had been demonstrated in the 1930s and 1940s), oil and gas drillers lacked the large scale technology to economically recover the vast potential of the deep, narrow tight gas seams. The findings of the
U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) “Eastern Gas Shales Project” report ignited the imagination of wildcat driller and founder of Mitchell Energy and Development Corporation, George P. Mitchell, to develop directional drilling methods to guide the drill string into the deep tight horizontal seams of the Barnett Shale. Mitchell worked diligently with cutting edge well fracturing contractor Union Pacific Resources, developing multi-fracturing techniques to stimulate production. The methods developed were so different from the conventional techniques that the produced gas was classified as “unconventional gas.” Improvements in techniques and technologies realized in the past 10-15 years have seen shale gas grow from contributing less than 1% of the U.S. gas supply in 2000 to 25% today with projections of as much as 50% by 2035. The excess supply of natural gas made available by the horizontal drilling revolution has depressed the price to the point of being uneconomic to drill or import. This has been disruptive to many industries, including the recently built LNG import terminals which now sit idle, several of which have applied for permits to liquefy and export LNG to try to recover their investments.
From Flare to Fuel:
The Case for Mini-LNG
David A. Franklin, WorleyParsons
HQ Magazine From Flare to Fuel 21
The shale oil revolutionAs natural gas prices have fallen, exploration and production companies have employed and optimized the horizontal drilling and production techniques to produce wet gas and oil from shales and tight sands. The Bakken, Eagle Ford, Niobrara and Marcellus basins have sparked one of the largest oil and gas booms in U.S. history and recent developments in the vast California Monterey Shales indicate reserves four times greater than those contained in the Bakken. The U.S.—once dependent on foreign oil—may soon be the largest oil producer in the world.
Natural gas is also co-produced with shale oil. This “associated gas” is often dripping wet with condensate, butane, propane and ethane. Condensate is easily extracted on site and is often recovered and put into the crude stream that is trucked to market. In regions with ample pipelines such as the Eagle Ford, the “rich gas” is transported to gas processing facilities to recover the ethane, propane and butane liquids while the methane is diverted to the gas network. However, some of the most productive shale oil regions are so remote and the local wellhead value of the natural gas is so low that it is currently uneconomic to recover the associated gas and NGLs. Over 30% (about 250 MMSCFD) of the associated gas produced from the Bakken shales is currently being flared in the process of recovering the oil and similar flaring in other shale basins is also common (i.e. Eagle Ford, Niobrara, Marcellus, Utica, etc.).
Environmental regulators and energy producers are scrambling to find solutions or create beneficial markets and develop economic processes to recover these hydrocarbons in order to reduce this wasteful practice. One potential solution to this issue is to totally condense all of the hydrocarbons locally and truck them to market in the same manner that the crude oil is currently hauled.
The mini-LNG solutionLNG liquefaction is often viewed as unprofitable unless it is done on a grand scale of 4.5-6 million metric tonnes per annum (MMTPA). Large- and mid-scale based load plants are optimized for ship-borne cargoes to reach distant utility markets. Small-scale liquefaction is usually provided in utility peak shaving applications with pipeline quality gas as a feedstock. A mini-LNG plant can provide an attractive solution to remote gas flaring with LNG targeted at the transportation fuel market
where it can compete favorably with traditional petroleum based fuels. However, producing an LNG product from the rich gas associated with shale oil production requires considerable care and attention to composition and products. The flared gas quantities at each well site are fairly small, averaging less than 300,000 standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD). A small gathering system must be developed to accumulate sufficient quantities of gas to justify production. To maximize participation, the facilities must be small enough to be mobile and only require a small gathering pipe network. The minimum economic size of the facility should accommodate about 2-5 MMSCFD of the flared gas.
All of the hydrocarbons and contaminants must be accounted for. For simplicity and for economics, it is assumed that the mini-LNG facility will produce three products: LNG, liquid ethane and C3+ NGLs. The value of ethane is currently less than the value of pipeline natural gas and may be used as feedstock to chemical plants or as fuel in thermal power plants. Removal of most of the ethane is required to produce marketable quality LNG, optimize the value for the remaining C3+ hydrocarbons and provide economic storage and transportation options.
LNG as a transportable fuelThere is a growing demand for LNG as a transportation fuel for trucks, drill rigs, mine haul and mining equipment, rail locomotives, ship fuel and remote power generation. LNG currently offers significant economic and environmental benefits to users. These benefits have been proven by the recent California Clean Ports initiative at the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach where LNG and CNG fueled vehicles were given advantageous access to the ports. LNG currently sells at $1.00-$1.50 discount to diesel on an equivalent diesel basis (dge). LNG also offers companies an economic way to achieve the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Tier III and Tier IV emission guidelines for off-road vehicles and stationary equipment such as power generators. LNG is transportable and is cost effective at current pricing.
Cleaning up the gasNatural gas occurs with a myriad of compositions and every gas formation has a characteristic composition that can also vary over time as the field is produced. Natural gas is always comprised of mainly methane (C1), but natural gas liquids (NGLs) ethane (C2), propane (C3), butanes (iC4, nC4), pentanes (C5s),
22 HQ Magazine From Flare to Fuel
hexanes (C6s) and other hydrocarbons are also common components. Water and inert gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen and helium, sulphur compounds including H2S, COS, CS2 and organic sulphurs such as various mercaptans may also be present in natural gas. The producer of natural gas or LNG must understand the markets that are available for the gas. If the gas will be sold into the pipeline grid for utility use, then it must meet the tariff composition specifications of the pipeline. Every pipeline in the U.S. has slightly different tariff requirements, but typically the water must be removed to less than 7 lbs/MMSCF, nitrogen and CO2 must not exceed 2-3% and the higher heating value (HHV) must be in the range of 1,000 to 1,100 Btu/scf. Gas processing facilities are provided to remove the sulphur, CO2, water, and NGLs to meet the pipeline specifications and the NGLs are recovered and further fractionated and purified to be sold into other fuel and chemical feedstock markets.
LNG shelf life and market composition considerationsProducing LNG requires cryogenic refrigeration, which can be provided by one of many various open art or proprietary licensed liquefaction processes, to cool and condense methane to about -260°F. The cryogenic refrigeration system may also be used beneficially to separate the methane, ethane and C3+ product streams. Some components of natural gas can freeze and foul the cryogenic heat exchanger and must be removed. These include water (<1.0 ppm), CO2 (<50 ppm), C5 (<0.1 mole%), C6+(<20 ppm). To meet most LNG specifications, H2S must also be removed (<4ppm) and total sulphur must be minimized (<20 ppm). If the LNG end user is a pipeline then the tariff composition limits will apply. Dual fuel diesel engines that utilize a small amount of diesel for ignition and LNG for the balance of fuel are typically tolerant to a wide range of LNG compositions. A gas turbine driven power generation facility will require a gas composition that meets the Wobbe Index (or Modified Wobbe Index) specified by the gas turbine supplier. If end users include spark ignited reciprocating engines then the Methane Number (MN) of the fuel must typically be greater than 85 to avoid detonation.
Further complicating the LNG seller’s life is the fragile nature of LNG. LNG only stays in a liquid state at very cold temperatures and is stored at its bubble point (boiling) in highly insulated storage tanks designed
to minimize heat leaking into the fuel from the environment. The LNG is constantly boiling off as heat leaks into the tank. If stored in a pressure vessel with a relief valve, the pressure in the tank will increase until it is vented. If the pressure is fairly constant in a large storage tank, the vapor boiling off (boil-off gas or BOG) must be removed by compressors and either discharged to a pipeline, used as fuel or recondensed in a liquefier. Nitrogen and methane have the lowest boiling points in LNG and will preferentially boil off first, leaving behind the heavier fractions of ethane, propane and butanes. Unless the LNG is constantly sold and replenished, the composition of the stored gas will change over time, gradually increasing in heating value as the methane and nitrogen boil off. At a production facility this is not an issue; however, if the end user is a fleet of vehicles and some of the vehicles sit idle for a considerable length of time, the heating value/methane number (MN) of the contents inside the LNG tank could trend outside of the engine manufacturers guidelines for detonation and could cause serious damage to the engines.
The LNG transportation fuels industry has established some guidelines to assure that fuel will not likely fall out of specification. The recommended composition for transportation fuel that includes spark ignited engines is to provide an LNG that is >97% methane and <1% ethane and <2% inerts. LNG of this quality is difficult and expensive to make and many LNG fuel marketers have relaxed the guidelines to LNG having a MN>90 to assure adequate supply for their customers.
Dollars and centsCurrent market prices show an opportunity for exploiting LNG as a replacement fuel for diesel. LNG currently sells at about 50% of the diesel value before taxes, marketing and transportation costs. Condensate, propane and butane also have significant value. Ethane—the lowest value hydrocarbon—is a refrigerant, a fuel and a feedstock for ethylene crackers and can also be converted to synthetic liquid fuels in a gas-to-liquids (GTL) plant. The abundant supply of ethane from the shale oil revolution has flooded the market and is currently selling at record lows. Many ethylene plants are being built to exploit this low cost feedstock.
If the mini-LNG facility is simplified to only produce the three proposed products, what prices can the producer expect to receive? Some general assumptions and

and a refrigeration system utilizing liquid nitrogen as a disposable refrigerant.
As seen in the analysis at left, flared gas can be economically recovered and sold into the various markets. The fuel savings after taxes, transportation and fuel service costs have been applied for a truck fleet converting to LNG fuel to show the demand for and incentive to convert the fleet to LNG fuel.
ConclusionMini-LNG facilities can offer a “flare-to-fuel” solution for associated gas currently being flared in remote shale oil regions.
To relieve the environmental regulatory pressure mounting to reduce flaring, the hydrocarbons can be economically captured and sold into the fuels and petrochemical markets. There is sufficient margin for profitability to fully produce the flared gas by condensing it into liquid products even on a small scale of only 2.5 MMSCFD. There is sufficient demand for the LNG fuels and adequate pricing for NGLs to justify many projects, providing the U.S. with the opportunity to quench the flares and reap the additional benefits of the shale oil boom by recovering the hydrocarbon fuels in the associated gas.

simplifications have been made as follows. • A composition for Bakken associated gas has been used (published by the North Dakota EERC in their recent flare study published Nov 05, 2012). • LNG is selling for about $12/MMBtu HHV (about $1.00/gallon). Assume that the facility can capture 75% of this price. • Ethane is currently selling for about $0.20/ gallon at the wellhead in the Eagle Ford. • C3+ (Propane + heavier hydrocarbons) will sell at a discount to purity propane to cover transportation and fractionation cost. Assume the facility can capture $0.60/gallon for the C3+ mix.
Considering the current market prices for fuels, the economics for a mini-LNG facility can be estimated. A 2.5 MMSCFD mini-LNG facility is shown in the above table and two different liquefaction technologies are evaluated. The first is a conventional molecular sieve-based CO2 and dehydration system with a rotating machinery based cryogenic refrigeration system and the second is a simple molecular sieve pretreatment
