GE has launched the re-deployable liquefied natural gas (LNG) fueling system, LNG In A Box system at the 17th International Conference and Exhibition on Liquefied Natural Gas in Houston, US.
The company expects to increase the usage of the natural gas as a cost-effective and cleaner transportation fuel with the new system.
GE will deliver the first commercial application to Luxembourg-based LNG firm Gasfin for LNG fueling stations in Europe, through its operating company AIR-LNG.
The new system offers LNG production range of 10,000gallons-50,000gallons per day and is claimed to decrease the demand-side adoption risk.
LNG In A Box system comes with a gas pre-treatment system, cold box assembly, boil off gas compressor, a GE's turboexpander compressor, high-speed reciprocating compressor, electric motor, driver and control system.
The first system will be installed by Gasfin near the border of Italy and Slovenia, while the remaining units will be manufactured in the US and shipped to Gasfin's LNG fueling sites in Europe.
