Trained Posted February 10, 2008 Report Posted February 10, 2008 (edited) Worked on media section a tad bit today, not much, but its getting there. This might be my only weekend off for a while, were going to put water in the 3rd tank to check for leaks coming up, and theres alot of work to be done. The tanks I work on: http://www.cheniere.com/images/banner_image1.jpg The tank were hydro testing is the one on the far right. Edited February 10, 2008 by Trained
Samapico Posted February 10, 2008 Report Posted February 10, 2008 What are those tanks filled with (or gonna be filled with) ?
candygirl Posted February 10, 2008 Report Posted February 10, 2008 I dont think its water..Too many tanks in one spot. OIL?
candygirl Posted February 10, 2008 Report Posted February 10, 2008 oh "you did say hydro sooo it may be diesel?
Trained Posted February 10, 2008 Author Report Posted February 10, 2008 They're gonna be filled with Liquid Natural Gas. The Hydro is water, we fill them with water first incase there are and major leaks in the inner tank s!@#$%^&* wall. Theres actually a tank inside the tanks you see in the picture. The first is just a carbon steel s!@#$%^&*, on the inside, theres a tank made of 9% nickel, after the water is put in, and the carbon steel doorsheets are in, and all the insulation is hung in between the walls, we close the outer tank s!@#$%^&* manway and fill it with perlite.
»Lynx Posted February 10, 2008 Report Posted February 10, 2008 I thought it was the liquadised version of the gas that you'd use for say your cooker??
Samapico Posted February 10, 2008 Report Posted February 10, 2008 Yeah, that would be it I think. But I thought that stuff would need to stay really cold to be liquid... http://www.eia.doe.gov/kids/energyfacts/sources/non-renewable/images/refinery.gifJet fuel is kerosenehad to search for LPG.. it's liquefied petroleum gas
»Lynx Posted February 10, 2008 Report Posted February 10, 2008 !@#$%^&*, that drawing reminds me of high school science.
rootbear75 Posted February 10, 2008 Report Posted February 10, 2008 that drawing also puts Jet Fuel along with Motor Gas... which is car fuel
Trained Posted February 10, 2008 Author Report Posted February 10, 2008 (edited) The gas in the LNG tanks were working on are kept 220 degrees below zero. The cool down date on the first tank is on the 15th of Feb, and then once the tank reaches design temp, than we will starting pumping in LNG.

Dav Posted February 19, 2008 Report Posted February 19, 2008 that drawing also puts Jet Fuel along with Motor Gas... which is car fuel it doesnt. where it says "motor gasjet fuel..." its stating that multiple products come off that line. the octane and kerosine will be seperated by some additional processing.
Trained Posted February 19, 2008 Author Report Posted February 19, 2008 Were starting to put LNG in the first tank tommorow. The 3rd tank had water going in it at 4:10am this morning, I got there at 5. It was a long weekend.
