Abstract: Fourteen LNG base-load terminals are in operation throughout the world. Five of these are export terminals, and nine are import (receiving) terminals. The particulars of these terminals are given in Tables I and 2. In the United States there are one operating receiving and one operating export terminals, Table 3. Three receiving terminals are under construction. Eight receiving and one exporting terminal are also in various stages of engineering design-for a total of 14. In general, the technology of terminaling LNG can be considered proved. The terminal operations involving LNG differ, however. from operations with most other liquids, which are handled at correspondingly high transfer rales and in large volumes, in that LNG is a boiling cryogenic liquid. This paper discusses the design and operation of terminal .system components including ship handling, liquid/vapor transfer, storage, and vaporization.
