持续改善功能性液化天然气转运流程物流
液化天然气传输过程安全且有效率地将液化天然气从生产设施转移到储存、再气化或直接使用的地点。维持液化天然气的完整性需要强大的传输系统,而液化天然气必须保持在低温下。小型液化天然气物流通常涉及规划和协调使用卡车、小型船舶、铁路罐等运输液化天然气。
小型液化天然气生产设施旨在服务利基市场或偏远地区,液化天然气工厂通常占地面积紧凑。 SSLNG 再气化终端允许进口液化天然气并转换回气体型态,然后发行给最终用户或註入区域天然气网。海上运输对于陆上交通困难的岛国和地区尤其重要。在液化天然气运输方面,小型专用船舶比传统液化天然气运输船更受青睐,可以更轻鬆地进入较小的港口和码头。 SSLNG 的储存解决方案旨在最大限度地减少长期储存过程中的蒸发气体 (BOG)。 BOG 管理对于维持储存的 LNG 的价值和确保安全至关重要。
LNG液化製程在型储运中的意义
小规模LNG液化是指将天然气冷却至-162℃左右形成液化天然气(LNG)的过程。液化过程使气体体积减少约600倍,使其具有成本效益,特别是对于无法通过管道进行远距储存和运输。再气化将液化天然气转化回气态。小型再气化厂对于无法透过管道获取天然气的最终用户(例如偏远或岛屿地区)非常重要,并且可以使用液化天然气作为煤炭和柴油的清洁替代品。
应用:海运在LNG物流的多种应用
大型车辆的小型液化天然气应用主要集中于其作为卡车和巴士的替代燃料来源。液化天然气通常因其环境优势而受到青睐,例如与传统柴油燃料相比,可以减少温室气体排放。小型液化天然气在工业和电力领域发挥重要作用。小型液化天然气通常用作高马力应用的燃料,例如采矿、铁路、钻井作业和供应能源设施。在海上运输领域,小型液化天然气主要用作渡轮、货船、游轮等船舶的燃料。严格的环境法规推动了航运业对小型液化天然气的需求不断增长,例如国际海事组织(IMO)的硫上限法规,该法规要求减少船舶燃料中的硫含量。
供应型态:增加液化天然气运输的转运和燃料库
小规模管道供应LNG一般适用于需求稳定、持续的场景,例如向住宅或工业供应天然气。另一方面,铁路运输可以将液化天然气供应到没有管道连接的偏远地区。转运涉及将液化天然气从较大的船舶转移到较小的船舶,以方便将液化天然气输送到偏远或交通不便的地区。燃料库是为船舶的推进系统提供燃料(包括液化天然气)的过程。使用液化天然气作为船用燃料的燃料库越来越受欢迎,因为液化天然气被认为是传统船用燃料的环保替代品。卡车运输液化天然气是一种灵活的运输方式,不需要管道或铁路等固定基础设施。它对于小容量运输特别有效,并且通常用于传统管道建设因地形或监管问题而受到阻碍的「虚拟管道」。
区域洞察
在美洲,美国和加拿大是小型液化天然气市场的主要参与者。丰富的页岩气使美国成为重要的液化天然气生产国和出口国。在国际海事组织(IMO)排放政策的推动下,使用小型液化天然气进行海上运输和偏远地区加油的趋势日益明显。在欧盟(EU),对确保能源供应和天然气来源多样化的关注导致人们对小型液化天然气的兴趣增加,特别是对于海上和重型道路运输。严格的欧盟排放法规正在加速采用液化天然气作为船用燃料。亚太地区小型液化天然气产业正在显着成长,这主要是由于中国、日本和印度等国家对清洁能源来源的需求以及对天然气的需求不断增加。亚太地区液化天然气燃料汽车的增加以及再气化终端等液化天然气基础设施的投资也引人注目。

[186 Pages Report] The Small Scale LNG Market size was estimated at USD 2.70 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 2.81 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 5.05% to reach USD 3.81 billion by 2030.
The small-scale LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) market refers to the sector involving LNG's production, transportation, and distribution in relatively small quantities and through lower-volume value chains. Stricter emissions standards globally are promoting the adoption of cleaner fuels such as LNG. Improved LNG storage and transportation technology have made small scale operations more feasible and efficient, influencing market growth. Government incentives for cleaner energy sources bolster the growth of small-scale LNG applications. However, initial capital investment for infrastructure development remains high, potentially limiting market growth. Ensuring consistent and predictable LNG supply can be a challenge for smaller-scale operations. Moreover, investing in small-scale LNG infrastructure, such as regasification terminals and bunkering facilities, can create opportunities in emerging markets. LNG, as a transition fuel in the pathway to a low-carbon economy, may offer significant growth potential in the market.

Function: Ongoing improvements in logistics of LNG transfer process
The LNG transfer process involves the safe and efficient movement of LNG from production facilities to where it will be stored, regasified, or directly used. The need for robust transfer systems arises from maintaining the integrity of LNG, which must be kept at extremely low temperatures. Logistics in Small-scale LNG encompasses the planning and coordination of the transport of LNG, typically involving trucks, small ships, or railway tanks.
Small-scale LNG production facilities are designed to cater to niche markets and remote locations, and LNG plants typically have a compact footprint. Regasification terminals for SSLNG enable the import and conversion of LNG back to gas form before it is distributed to end users or injected into the local gas grid. Shipping is critical, especially for island nations and areas with difficult-to-access overland routes. Specialized vessels that are smaller than the conventional LNG carriers are preferred for LNG shipping, facilitating access to smaller ports and terminals. Storage solutions for SSLNG are designed to minimize the boil-off gas (BOG) during long storage periods. BOG management is crucial to maintain the value of the stored LNG and ensure safety.
Type: Significance of LNG liquefaction process for storage and transportation
The liquefaction of the small-scale LNG refers to the process of converting natural gas into liquefied natural gas (LNG) by cooling it to approximately -162°C. The liquefaction process shrinks the volume of the gas by about 600 times, making it more cost-effective for storage and transportation, especially over long distances where pipelines are not feasible. The regasification involves converting LNG back into a gaseous state. Small-scale regasification plants are critical for end-users who cannot access natural gas through pipelines, such as remote communities or islands, allowing for the use of LNG as a cleaner alternative to coal or diesel.
Application: Diverse applications of marine transport in LNG logistics
The application of small-scale LNG in heavy-duty vehicles primarily revolves around its use as an alternative fuel source for trucks and buses. The preference for LNG is often derived from its environmental benefits - such as reduced greenhouse gas emissions - compared to traditional diesel fuel. Small-scale LNG has a significant role to play in the industrial and power sectors. Small-scale LNG is often used as a fuel for high-horsepower applications such as mining, rail, drilling operations, and serving energy facilities. In the marine transport sector, small-scale LNG is primarily utilized for fueling ships, including ferries, cargo ships, and cruise liners. The maritime industry's growing need for small-scale LNG is driven by stringent environmental regulations, such as the International Maritime Organization's (IMO) sulfur cap, which requires ships to reduce the sulfur content in their fuel.
Mode of Supply: Rising utilization of transshipment & bunkering for LNG transfer
The supply of small-scale LNG through pipelines is generally preferred for stable, continuous demand scenarios, such as supplying natural gas to residential areas or industrial complexes. Rail transport, on the other hand, allows for LNG delivery to remote areas with no pipeline connectivity. Transshipment involves the transfer of LNG from larger vessels to smaller ones, often at sea, to facilitate the delivery of LNG to remote or less accessible areas. Bunkering is the process of supplying ships with fuel, which includes LNG, for their propulsion systems. Bunkering with LNG as a marine fuel is increasingly common as it is considered an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional marine fuels. The truck delivery of LNG is a flexible mode of transport that does not require fixed infrastructure like pipelines or rails. It is particularly useful for smaller quantities and is often employed for "virtual pipelines" where the terrain or regulatory issues inhibit traditional pipeline construction.
Regional Insights
In the Americas, the United States and Canada are key players in the small-scale LNG market. The abundant availability of shale gas has made the United States a significant producer and exporter of LNG. The trend is towards using small-scale LNG for marine transport and fueling remote areas, driven by the emissions reduction policies of the International Maritime Organization (IMO). In the European Union, the focus on securing energy supply and diversifying gas sources has led to increased interest in small-scale LNG, particularly for maritime and heavy road transport. The EU's stringent emission standards have accelerated LNG's adoption as a marine fuel. The Asia Pacific region is witnessing significant growth in the small-scale LNG sector, primarily driven by the need for cleaner energy sources and the increasing demand for natural gas in countries such as China, Japan, and India. The rise in LNG-fueled vehicles and investments in LNG infrastructure, such as regasification terminals, is also prominent within the APAC region.
