Download clamps, ensuring safe LNG transfer.
YPF, in collaboration with Shell, has opted for floating liquefied natural gas vessels over traditional onshore plants to expedite LNG exports from the Vaca Muerta shale formation.
The adoption of small-scale, modular FLNG units allows for scalable production and reduced initial investment.
Exporting gas pipelines are repurposed to supply FLNG units, reducing the need for new infrastructure. The vessels provide the flexibility to capitalize on seasonal export opportunities and respond swiftly to global market demands.
Downlead clamps secure vertical downcomer pipes, easing the safe transfer of cryogenic LNG from topside liquefaction units to storage tanks.
The clamps are designed to accommodate thermal contraction and expansion to prevent pipe damage due to temperature fluctuations.
Downlead clamps absorb mechanical stresses from vessel movements and protect cables and pipes from fatigue and abrasion.
The implementation of cryogenic transfer technologies ensures efficient and safe LNG handling between FLNG units and carriers.
