GE石油天然气集团先后引进了LNG在一个盒子里，一个小规模的，插件和播放，重新部署的液化天然气（LNG）燃料解决方案基于成熟的技术，可以帮助加速使用天然气作为成本效益，清洁运输燃料。全球第一个商业应用的LNG箱系统将LNG燃料站欧洲到被交付由总部位于卢森堡的LNG坚定GASFIN通过其运营公司AIR-LNG，GE宣布的第17届国际会议及展览在液化天然气天然气（LNG-17）在休斯敦。

  GASFIN今天签署了一项谅解备忘录，GE安装五个LNG在一个盒子里的服务单位“集群”的LNG加气站。第一台机组将安装在靠近意大利和斯洛文尼亚的边界，扩展到欧洲和独联体国家的25个单位的潜力。

  “我们正在建设转换为柴油，汽油和液化石油气燃料LNG在欧洲的领导地位，发展有竞争力的替代液化天然气接收站供应便携式的，小规模的LNG燃料的长途货运和小型远程能源中心的解决方案，说：“达沃尔Grcevich，GASFIN董事总经理。“作为LNG燃料的快速部署，模块化的解决方案，GE的新技术提供了一个很好的比赛，我们的创新LNG加油集群的概念，可以减少高速公路拥堵，有利于保证燃气质量和整个欧洲天然气打开了新的机遇。”

  在GE的微型LNG工厂宣布去年相比，这一新系统，为客户提供一个更加标准化，模块化的解决方案，涵盖燃料的LNG生产范围为10,000 - 50,000加仑每天（16-18吨/天）。它扩展了GE的现有LNG组合，并是第一个可用在10,000加仑的日处理能力，减少需求方采用风险，需要一个非常低的CAPEX）和运营支出（OpEx承诺。

  GE带来了技术，供应链的效率和大规模工业化的能力;使所有者/经营者能够快速地部署LNG燃料解决方案，网站在短短两个月。该插件的即插即用解决方案，最大限度地减少工程的努力和民间的要求和降低初始成本，调度，技术，许可和融资风险，其工厂中行之有效的部分，GE保证。该模块也可以根据需要重新调配，从而减轻链的基础设施成本通过消除固定安装的风险。

  小规模的解决方案，例如在一个盒子里的LNG系统可能会鼓励柴油LNG长途车的过渡。在北美的情况下，节省燃油，可能会产生一个为期三年的投资回收期，根据目前的燃油价格。这种趋势的一个主要因素是北美能源安全和减排目标可能取代总“油井到车轮”的温室气体排放量减少约1.7万桶油，[1]，而7-15％[2]。小规模的解决方案，也为客户寻求10-50,000加仑的日生产能力是经济适用。典型的LNG储罐重型车辆平均持有70-150加仑（110-240公斤），所以一个10,000加仑每天一（17万吨/天）系统将能燃料每天100辆卡车。

  “与我们的液化天然气燃料的趋势继续在一个盒子里的插件和播放系统，”Ujjwal库马尔说，总经理，GE石油天然气集团透平机械的非传统的解决方案产品线。“这家规模工业的技术可以帮助加快天然气燃料的基础设施建设，可以使柴油动力车辆转换到更具成本效益，清洁的天然气。”

  GE提供的灵活性，LNG在一个盒子里的交易结构，以满足客户的燃料基础设施和车辆的需求，通过通用电气资本公司获得大量的资本和服务。GE资本车队服务，也可以提供财务，车辆管理方案，以支持常规和替代燃料的车队。

  每个LNG在一个盒子单元配备了一个气体预处理系统，冷箱总成煮沸气体压缩机以及一个GE的涡轮膨胀机压缩机，高速往复式压缩机，电机，驱动器和控制系统。GASFIN在一个盒子单位的液化天然气将在美国制造的，将被运到GASFIN的LNG燃料在欧洲的网站。

  新系统适用于众多行业，包括公路运输，海运，铁路和远程的行业，如采矿和分布式发电。它解决行业面临的挑战，帮助客户及同行业提高运营绩效，减少环境污染和提高资源回收率，同时创造创新技术，以推动对天然气的需求。

  先前推出的GE产品包括CNG在一个盒子系统，一个完全集成的压缩天然气（CNG）燃料供给系统提供符合成本效益的插件和播放简单车队和零售加油站提供CNG燃料和Micro LNG工厂电力远程工业地点和加油的长途货车和机车上运行的LNG在未来。

  GE Oil & Gas has introduced the LNG In A Box system, a small-scale, plug-and-play, re-deployable liquefied natural gas (LNG) fueling solution based on proven technology that can help accelerate the use of natural gas as a cost-effective, cleaner transportation fuel. The world’s first commercial application of the LNG In A Box system will be for LNG fueling stations in Europe to be delivered by Luxembourg-based LNG firm Gasfin through its operating company AIR-LNG, GE announced at the 17th International Conference & Exhibition on Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG-17) in Houston.

  Gasfin today signed a memorandum of understanding with GE to install five LNG In A Box units serving “clusters” of LNG fueling stations. The first unit will be installed near the border of Italy and Slovenia, with the potential for an additional 25 units for expansion into Europe and the CIS countries.

  “We are building a leadership position in the conversion of diesel, gasoline and LPG fuels to LNG in Europe, developing a competitive alternative to LNG terminal supply with portable, small-scale LNG fueling solutions for long-haul trucking and small remote energy centers,” said Davor Grcevich, Gasfin managing director. “As a quickly deployable, modular solution for LNG fueling, GE’s new technology offers a good match for our innovative LNG ‘fueling cluster’ concept that can reduce highway congestion, help ensure gas quality and open new opportunities for natural gas throughout Europe.”

  In comparison to GE’s Micro LNG plant announced last year, this new system offers customers a more standardized, modular fueling solution covering an LNG production range of 10,000 – 50,000 gallons a day (16-18 tons/day). It expands GE’s existing LNG portfolio and is the first available in a 10,000-gallons-a-day capacity that reduces demand-side adoption risk and requires a remarkably low CapEx and OpEx commitment.

  GE brings technology, supply chain efficiency and the ability to industrialize at scale; enabling an owner/operator to rapidly deploy an LNG fueling solution at a site in just two months. The plug-and-play solution minimizes engineering effort and civil requirements and lowers initial cost, scheduling, technical, permitting and financing risks with its factory-tested components and GE warranties. The modules also can be redeployed as needed, thus mitigating the risk of a fixed installation by eliminating stranded infrastructure costs.

  Small-scale solutions such as the LNG In A Box system may encourage the transition of long-haul trucks from diesel fuel to LNG. In the case of North America, fuel savings may yield a three-year payback based on current fuel prices. This trend can be a major contributor to North American energy security and emissions reduction goals by potentially displacing approximately 1.7 million barrels a day of oil,[1] while reducing total “well to wheels” GHG emissions by 7-15 percent.[2] The small-scale solution also is economically suited for customers seeking a 10-50,000-gallons-a-day production capacity. Typical LNG tanks for heavy-duty vehicles hold an average of 70-150 gallons (110-240 kg), so one 10,000-gallon-a-day (17 tons/day) system would be able to fuel up to 100 trucks per day.

  “The trend toward natural gas fueling continues with our LNG In A Box plug-and-play system,” said Ujjwal Kumar, general manager, Turbomachinery Unconventional Solutions product line for GE Oil & Gas. “This industrial-scaled technology can help accelerate the build-out of natural gas fueling infrastructure and can enable the conversion of diesel-powered vehicles to more cost-effective, cleaner natural gas.”

  GE provides flexibility in LNG In A Box transaction structuring to meet customers’ fueling infrastructure and vehicle needs, with access to large amounts of capital and services through GE Capital. GE Capital Fleet Services also can provide financial and vehicle management programs to support both conventional and alternative-fueled vehicle fleets.

  Each LNG In A Box unit is fully equipped with a gas pre-treatment system, cold box assembly and boil off gas compressor as well as a GE’s turboexpander compressor, high-speed reciprocating compressor, electric motor, driver and control system. LNG In A Box units for Gasfin will be manufactured in the United States and will be shipped to Gasfin’s LNG fueling sites in Europe.

  The new system is suitable for numerous industry sectors including highway transportation, marine, rail and remote industries such as mining and distributed power generation. It addresses industry challenges, helping customers and the industry improve operational performance, reduce their environmental footprint and increase resource recovery while creating innovative technologies to drive demand for natural gas.

  Previously introduced GE products include the CNG In A Box system, a fully integrated compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling supply system offering cost-effective plug-and-play simplicity for fleet and retail fueling stations that provide CNG fuel; and the Micro LNG plant to power remote industrial locations and for fueling long haul trucks and locomotives running on LNG in the future.
