ABSTRACT:
Liquefiable gases such as associated natural gas may be liquified, stored in the liquid form and re-vaporized by cooling a pressurized first liquified gas stream by indirect heat exchange with a first stream of a refrigerant, such as liquid nitrogen, to form a second liquified gas stream whose temperature is less than its initial boiling point at ambient pressure and a first warmed refrigerant stream. The second liquified gas stream is passed to a vessel wherein the liquified gas is stored. When the gas is required the second liquified gas is removed from the storage vessel and warmed by indirect heat with a second warmed refrigerant stream, to form a third liquified gas stream and said first refrigerant stream. The warmed refrigerant stream is also in indirect heat exchange with said first warmed refrigerant stream and after heating comprises second warmed refrigerant stream. Thereafter, the third liquified gas stream is vaporized.
