Steven Vitale, Ph.D., PE
This course is the first in a series of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Courses. This course is designed for engineers entering the LNG specialty or who want to understand the basics of LNG production, storage, transportation, safety measures, and vaporization. Many unique characteristics of LNG will be covered in this course. Also, emphasis will be given to the need for relief valves and attention to LNG special phenomena, such as Rapid Phase Transformation, LNG spill behavior, LNG storage tank inventory rollover, the effects of nitrogen in the LNG, and re-condenser use, will be explained. The importance of proper design (spring hangers, expansion joints, etc.) and maintenance will be presented.
The most important intention of this course is to give the learner the basic technical knowledge, at an introductory level, that he/she needs to start their study on how to continue to make the Liquid Natural Gas Industry Safe and Reliable.
This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end, which is designed to enhance the understanding of the course materials.
