The Stakes Have Never Been Higher A gas plant is not a piece of equipment. It is a multi-million-dollar ecosystem of rotating machinery, heat exchangers, columns, piping, and control systems, all working in concert. And the entity responsible for bri...

The Shift That’s Reshaping Natural Gas Processing Natural gas has spent the better part of the last decade in a strange position—too clean for the coal camp, too dirty for the renewables crowd. But the numbers tell a different story. The ...

The Final Step in the LNG Supply Chain Liquefied natural gas travels thousands of miles across oceans in specially designed carriers, kept at -162°C in cryogenic tanks. But the vast majority of natural gas consumers don't burn liquid—they...

The Challenge of Keeping Things Cold Liquefied natural gas, liquid nitrogen, liquid oxygen—these aren't commodities you can store in a standard atmospheric tank. At temperatures below -150°C, the rules change. Materials become brittle. In...

The Shift Toward Modular LNG Ten years ago, building an LNG plant meant clearing a large site, pouring concrete foundations, and spending two to three years on field construction. Today, a growing segment of the industry is doing it differently. Sk...
