Studies on the steam and CO2 reforming of methane for GTL-FPSO applications

Process simulation and assessment of a back-up condensate stabilization unit

“…PRO/II ® is a commercial process simulator widely used in the oil, gas and petroleum industries (Liao et al, 2001;Lee et al, 2011, Kim et al, 2014, for instance, in the production of methanol from natural gas, CO 2 absorption has been simulated for a FPSO (floating production, storage, off-loading) system (Kim et al, 2014). In another example, the CO 2 reforming of methane has been modelled with PRO/II ® to consider the effect of Ni-based catalyst (Lee et al, 2011).…”

“…In another example, the CO 2 reforming of methane has been modelled with PRO/II ® to consider the effect of Ni-based catalyst (Lee et al, 2011). The conversion of CH 4 versus the change in concentration of H 2 O and CO 2 has been studied and the Ni/MgO was chosen as a desirable catalyst in order to produce synthesis gas; the result of modelling was validated by experimental data not plant data.…”

Steam CO 2 reforming of methane over La 1−x Ce x NiO 3 perovskite catalysts

“…At the present moment, one of the main routes is the catalytic reforming of natural gas, which includes steam-methane reforming (SMR), partial oxidation (POX), autothermal reforming (ATR), dry (carbon dioxide) methane reforming (DMR) and combined steam and carbon dioxide reforming (SCR). Among the above processes, combined steam CO 2 reforming uses methane and carbon dioxide which are well known greenhouse gases [3]. Besides, it shows better carbon resistance compared to dry reforming by supplying some water as feedstock.…”

Design, analysis, and performance evaluation of steam-CO 2 reforming reactor for syngas production in GTL process

“…Therefore, synthetic fuel is regarded as a green fuel. Gas to liquid-floating production storage and offloading (GTL-FPSO) process has received much attention because of the possibility for application of stranded gas field or associated gas in oil field [3].…”
