fuel system for a Power Plant?”

A Feasibility Analyze was done to evaluate this
question. The results are presented here:

Natural Gas has become the fuel of preference and is
expected to pass coal within a decade or so…

Terminal optimization
• The most important parameter when optimizing the terminal is the LNG supply.
The ship size will determine the cargo that will be received. Shipping time and
needed weather margins will determine the time between cargos. But also
available HUB slots and costs need to be considered.
• The average consumption requirement will determine the slope of the volume
curves and thus the needed re-gasification capacities.

Volume

• Heel Requirement is for safe-guarding the cry-temperature in the LNG tank at all
times

Final Conclusions
Single Purpose Terminal can make
sense
• For remote location LNG can be the only
acceptable fuel. Alternative would be HFO
• LNG Terminal can serve the regional
industry with clean and affordable fuel
• LNG can be a domestic fuel

Terminal economics is case specific
• Each case must be studied indivudually
• LNG FOB-price dominates the
Distribution Gas Price structure
• Additional Gas Off-Take will benefit the
project feasibility
• Difference between the best FOB-price
and Distribution price is around 20%

Gas fired power plant – a natural choice
• For ”Green-Field” power development
LNG is preferable vs. HFO
• Power tariff difference is 37% between
the two extremities
• At its highist the ”Terminal Effect” will
increase the power tariff with around 25%
• At its lowest the ”Terminal Effect” will
increase the power tariff with less than
10%

With right LNG FOB price and power tariff a
Single Purpose LNG Terminal can make sense...

    Terminal optimization • Themost important parameter when optimizing the terminal is the LNG supply. The ship size will determine the cargo that will be received. Shipping time and needed weather margins will determine the time between cargos. But also available HUB slots and costs need to be considered. • The average consumption requirement will determine the slope of the volume curves and thus the needed re-gasification capacities. Volume • Heel Requirement is for safe-guarding the cry-temperature in the LNG tank at all times Ship cargo Total storage volume Shipping time Incl. loading and unloading Emergency Inventory Heel requirement Time 23 © Wärtsilä 13 January 2014 K.

    Final Conclusions Single PurposeTerminal can make sense • For remote location LNG can be the only acceptable fuel. Alternative would be HFO • LNG Terminal can serve the regional industry with clean and affordable fuel • LNG can be a domestic fuel Terminal economics is case specific • Each case must be studied indivudually • LNG FOB-price dominates the Distribution Gas Price structure • Additional Gas Off-Take will benefit the project feasibility • Difference between the best FOB-price and Distribution price is around 20% Gas fired power plant – a natural choice • For ”Green-Field” power development LNG is preferable vs. HFO • Power tariff difference is 37% between the two extremities • At its highist the ”Terminal Effect” will increase the power tariff with around 25% • At its lowest the ”Terminal Effect” will increase the power tariff with less than 10% With right LNG FOB price and power tariff a Single Purpose LNG Terminal can make sense... 41 © Wärtsilä 13 January 2014 K.
