In a rapidly expanding global LNG market (capacity expected to increase by 54% by 2030 according to the IEA), with over 300 new liquefaction and regasification projects planned, ensuring quality, safety, and compliance in regasification, storage, marine bunkering, and custody transfer operations is crucial.
The μPGC 990 from SRA Instruments is an online process gas chromatograph specifically designed for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of LNG, with international metrological certifications for fiscal and commercial applications.
Key Features:
- Continuous Online Analysis: Real-time monitoring of LNG composition, reducing operational risks and improving process efficiency.
- ATEX Zone 1 Operational Safety: Can be installed directly in potentially explosive atmospheres, eliminating the need to transport samples to the laboratory and reducing HSE risks.
- Maximum Analytical Versatility: Modular configuration with TCD detector for the complete analysis of C1–C6+ hydrocarbons, permanent gases (O2, N2, CO, CO2), hydrogen (H2), and the option of dedicated columns for impurities (H2S, COS, mercaptans).
- Integrated gasification: Controlled LNG vaporization system that ensures stable, representative, and repeatable samples while preserving the original composition.
- Full SCADA/DCS integration: Digital communication (Modbus), automatic reporting, configurable alerts, and full integration with process control systems.
Metrological Certifications - International Compliance for Fiscal Measurements and Custody Transfer:
- NMi: NMi Approval (Nederlands Meetinstitut)
- OIML R140: OIML R140: compliant with 2007/2014
- MID: Directive 2014/32/EU
