lpg truck loading skid
With the rapid growth in the demand of LNG, Regasification terminals are being set up to meet client’s requirement. LNG is being used as major fuel for various industries.
Transportation of LNG via road tankers is the most preferred and economical way to reach consumers across the country. Hence, loading of LNG tank trucks using LNG loading skids is important and critical process in transportation of LNG via roadways.
Loading of LNG in Tank truck is challenging due to its cryogenic (-176 deg C) process condition. However, with Woodfield’s strong engineering, manufacturing & testing capabilities it becomes easier for terminal operator to safely & efficiently fill trucks with LNG.
Woodfield manufactures Cryogenic truck loading arms and truck loading skids with typical capacities ranging from 30 m3/hr to 100 m3/hr and available in sizes of 3″150# & 4″150#. These skids are designed for -196 deg C to +80 deg C process temperature.
Woodfield’s LNG truck loading skid mainly consists of LNG truck loading arms & vapour return arms with cryogenic couplings and swivel joints, flow metering and controlling system, nitrogen distribution and purging system, vapour return line, LNG recirculation provision, draining facility, sick tanker unloading facility, cold insulation and other auxiliary piping, electrical, structural items.
Woodfield’s Swivel Joints are tested under cryogenic conditions and proven to handle cryogenic temperatures.
