Invitation
Welcome to LNG 17
April 16–19 in Houston, Texas
Come and join us at LNG 17 – our experts are looking forward to meeting you
in Houston. Our booth offers a concise overview of Siemens’ extensive solution
portfolio for the LNG value chain. With our products, systems, and services,
we’d like to “Electrify your LNG Business.” This is our booth’s motto, and our
special focus is on reliability, electrification, and sustainability based on our
proven experience in rotating equipment, power supply, and automation.
Reliable, efficient, and environment-friendly solutions
Liquefied natural gas (LNG) has established itself worldwide as a major alternative for the high-volume
transportation of natural gas. Today one-quarter of all internationally traded natural gas is LNG.
To make LNG even more attractive, Siemens has developed improvements to the reliability, efficiency,
and environmental impact of the entire LNG process chain that permit the cost-effective LNG processing of existing natural gas deposits anywhere in the world.
All-electric LNG
As a leading technology supplier, Siemens offers integrated solutions for almost all LNG applications
that tap the unexploited potentials in process efficiency. As a result, Siemens E-LNG technologies –
which use an electric motor drive for the liquefaction train – make it possible to lower operating
and maintenance costs while providing higher availability, outstanding energy efficiency, and environmental compatibility. All-electric LNG plants powered by Siemens are notable for their economical and
ecological approach.

While our posters on pioneering developments along the entire LNG chain will
be displayed throughout the conference,
you can meet our poster authors during
a three-hour exclusive poster session on
Thursday, April 18th, starting at 3 p. m.
We invite you to discuss the following
­topics with our presenters:
Full-load testing of large electrically
­driven compressors (Theodor Loscha)
■■ The Siemens SGT-750 gas turbine
­developed for the oil and gas industry
(Anders Hellberg)
■■ Electrical LNG plant overall system
­design by simultaneous simulation
of the electrical and steam system

Small and Mid-size LNG
LNG receiving terminals
With our modular Mid-size LNG concept, we offer cost-­
effective systems for small and mid-size plants. It allows
lower CAPEX as well as higher return-on-investment compared with traditional LNG plants. Mid-size LNG is not just
tonnage reduced to a smaller scale – it is a business field
of its own. On the engineering side of the equation,
Siemens offers a modular concept with pre-engineered,
proven, and fully tested solution packages. A basic design
integrates four trains, which facilitates the highest availability and flexibility of the entire plant. Power supply and
plant control are central units. Modularized packages allow
for rapid installation and commissioning, including plant
expansion.
Our innovative concept features a single-body, singleshaft, centrifugal compressor optimized for small and
­medium BOG volume flows and capable of automatic
start/stop operation as well as startup from cold conditions with no cool-down requirements. This enables a
safe, economical, and environment-friendly operation
that also improves the total cost of ownership.
F-LNG: The “mobile” LNG solution
As more economical resources dry out, processing natural
gas for transportation on-site (at sea) or even from deepsea reservoirs will become increasingly attractive. As a result,
a growing number of deep-sea and offshore stranded gas
reservoirs will be exploited. Floating F-LNG solutions will
enable the economical utilization of natural gas in these
locations, where gas resources are too small to justify
­investments in deep-sea pipelines or onshore l­iquefaction
plants. Siemens can provide a full spectrum of topside
products, systems, and packaged solutions.

Mechanical-drive LNG
MD-LNG is the traditional way to produce LNG, by driving
compressors with gas or steam turbines. Siemens’ extensive
experience and a comprehensive portfolio of services and
solutions for gas turbine-driven compressor trains provide
customers with the advantage of choice. This includes the
liquefaction train and power supply as well as solutions
for flash gas and automation.
Power and electrification
Our wide range of gas and steam turbines and intensive
experience, including turnkey plants, are the basis for our
optimized offerings. A variety of compact package designs
ensure that these units are suited to any environment both
on- and offshore. As a pioneer in air-insulated and gas-­
insulated switchgear, Siemens has 25 years of expertise
in the development of switchgear and switching devices.
On this foundation, in addition to optimized power management systems we also offer best-in-class solutions for
supplying an LNG plant’s power consumers.
Compression and drives
Low operating costs as well as high environmental performance and safety are largely determined by the optimized
designs of our compression solutions. Single shaft, axial,
or axial-radial and integrally geared as well as single-stage
compressors can be matched with a broad spectrum of
drivers – steam turbine, gas turbine, or electric motor –
in a solution that precisely matches our customers’ specific
requirements.
