RECEIVING EQUIPMENT FOR LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS

摘要

The purpose of the present invention is to provide receiving equipment for liquefied natural gas, that is capable of stably processing boil-off gas generated in a storage tank for liquefied natural gas. This receiving equipment for liquefied natural gas is characterized by comprising: a storage tank (2) that stores liquefied natural gas received from outside; a discharging line (102) comprising a vaporizer (42) for vaporizing liquefied natural gas, said discharging line being for vaporizing liquefied natural gas sent from the storage tank by using the vaporizer and discharging same in a gas state; a boil-off gas line (103) for discharging pressure-boosted boil-off gas and comprising a gas compression unit (3) that boosts the pressure of boil-off gas generated inside the storage tank; a gas engine (6) that uses the boil-off gas generated inside the storage tank as fuel and drives a generator (61); and a fuel gas line (104) for supplying boil-off gas inside the storage tank to the gas engine.
