GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM WITH PEAK GAS CONSUMPTION CONTROL Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC F17D1/02 

FIELD: power engineering.

SUBSTANCE: gas supply system with peak gas consumption control includes gas-field equipment for supplying, collecting, cleaning, pre-treatment, pre-processing and preparation for further pipeline transportation of natural gas, main pipeline with compressor stations and other accessories, main gas distributing stations at the places of accumulation, storage and consumption of natural gas, synthesisers for development, manufacture and installation of regasification of crystallohydrates of methane natural gas, thermobaric storage facilities (storage rooms), for example in the form of typical industrial buildings of cold store facilities. In addition, it is provided with shore main gas distributing stations with synthesisers provided on them and meant for synthesising solid natural gases in the form of water methane crystallohydrates and with thermobaric storage facilities (storage rooms), as well as with independent shore gas distributing stations; besides main gas distributing stations are equipped with at least one regasification plant of methane crystallohydrates, to one of the outputs of which there connected are gas distributing networks of gas consumers; at that, high pressure gas is supplied to gas crystallohydrates synthesisers from main gas pipeline through turbine expanders to the output of which there connected are feed circuits of crystallohydrate synthesisers, and the other output of crystallohydrate regasification plants is connected through waste water recovery plant to one of the inputs of methane crystallohydrate synthesiser; at that, methane crystallohydrates are transported from the places of manufacture and storage at shore main gas distributing stations located on the coast of seas and equipped with release terminals of gas crystallohydrates to independent shore gas distributing stations by means of sea dry cargo vessels equipped with cooling plants and chambers. At that, one of the outputs of gas crystallohydrate synthesiser or storage room of shore main gas distributing station is connected to input of the release terminal the output of which is connected to sea vessel storage chambers during shipment.

EFFECT: enlarging coverage of gas supply system and improving gas supply reliability owing to combined gas supply to consumers, which includes systems of pipeline transport and sea transportation with peak gas consumption control.
