Yankee Gas LNG Peakshaver
Brownfield LNG Peakshaving Facility
Waterbury, Connecticut, USA
The Waterbury LNG Peakshaver was commissioned for operation during the late summer of 2007 and is now fully operational. The Plant is designed to liquefy pipeline natural gas, store the liquefied natural gas (LNG) in order to pressure and vaporize the LNG during periods of high natural gas peak demand loads. The vaporized LNG is odorized and directed into the existing local pipeline distribution network.The Plant comprises a 6 mmscf/day (75,000 Gal/day) natural gas liquefaction system, 1 x 348,000 Bbl full containment LNG storage tank, a design sendout capacity of 60 mmscf/day using remotely heated shell & tube vaporizers. The facility also has two LNG truck loading/unloading stations.As Regulatory Engineer CH·IV also participated in the HAZOP Safety Study and equipment performance testing. On site inspection and monitoring of construction was also provided by CH·IV to help assure compliance with codes, regulations and approved project specifications and drawings. |

Southern Connecticut Gas Peak shaver
Milford LNG Facility
Milford, Connecticut, USA
The Milford Peakshaver LNG facility was built by Airco/BOC in 1972 to provide LNG storage and vaporization. LNG is received from truck or can be liquefied at a rate of 6 mmscfd. LNG is stored in a low pressure (1 psig) single containment tank. The 328,000 barrel tank, is generally filled in the summer then revaporized for consumer use during the peak periods of the heating season. Three submerged combustion vaporizers supplied by four LNG sendout pumps create a maximum sendout rate of 90 mmscfd. CH·IV was contracted to perform a due diligence assessment on the facility. This included a site visit, where the engineers reviewed available design and operations data, visually inspected various pieces of equipment and interviewed operations personnel. CH·IV corporation (the predecessor to CH·IV International) performed a similar due diligence assessment on the facility in 1995. The report included a status update and recommendations for different equipment or systems.
