Burckhardt Compression, a global leader in reciprocating compressor technology and systems, has secured several ordersto supply compressor solutions for LNG terminal projects in Thailand and Taiwan. Across the two terminals, the orders comprise a total of eight Laby® compressor unitsfor boil-off gas (BOG) services and one for minimum send-of service, supporting safe, efficient and low-emission LNG handling in the region.
Supporting LNG terminal operations with efficient boil-off gas managementLNG terminals receive, store and regasify liquefied natural gas and must operate with increasing flexibility as demand and supply fluctuate. Compressors play a vital role in LNG terminal processes by handling boil-off gas (BOG) generated during storage at cryogenic conditions.
With these new orders, Burckhardt Compression strengthens its position as a leader and trusted partner for LNG terminal operators in Asia-Pacific, delivering solutions designed for reliability, long service intervals and strong environmental performance.
Laby® technology: oil-free compression and reduced emissionsFor LNG terminal applications, Burckhardt Compression's Laby® compressor technology is valued for its contact-less, oil-free design and full gas-tight characteristics — supporting near-to-zero emissions and maximizing operational efficiency associated with gas handling.
In addition, the solution is designed to support highest availability by longer service intervals and reduced maintenance effort in demanding, and dynamic terminal operations.
"These orders demonstrate the continued demand for reliable, efficient LNG terminal infrastructure in Asia-Pacific. We are proud that customers across these strategic LNG projects have selected our solutions to support safe operations and strengthen energy supply security - while improving the environmental footprint of boil-off gas handling." – Andreas Brautsch, President Systems Division Burckhardt Compression.
