Process Overview

Gas-to-LNG-to-Distribution Flow

01

Gas Receiving & Pre-treatment

Feed gas from Ntorya (TZ) and ENH Area 1 (MZ) enters the plant and undergoes mercury removal, CO₂ absorption (amine unit), dehydration (molecular sieve), and NGL recovery.

02

Refrigerant Compression

Mixed refrigerant (MR) compressors driven by Baker Hughes LM9000 aeroderivative turbines cool the gas progressively through a multi-stage refrigeration cycle.

03

Liquefaction at -162°C

Pre-cooled gas enters the main cryogenic heat exchangers where it is liquefied to -162°C at atmospheric pressure. LNG is produced at >93% recovery factor.

04

Storage (3 × 50,000 m³)

LNG is stored in three full-containment cryogenic tanks (inner nickel steel, outer concrete) with 24/7 BOG recovery, vapour management, and Level 1 safety instrumented systems.

05

Marine Loading & Export

LNG is transferred via insulated loading arms to LNG carriers at the multi-berth export jetty. ISO tanker bay serves the Virtual Pipeline resupply fleet.

06

Virtual Pipeline Distribution

ISO tanker trucks and CNG trailers dispatch from the platform to 10 regional hubs — delivering LNG/CNG to mines, industries, and NGV corridors across 5 countries.
