Air Products to Showcase Its World-Leading LNG Equipment and Technology at International LNG Congress Russia

LEHIGH VALLEY, Pa., March 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Air Products (NYSE:APD) will be exhibiting at the 7th Annual International LNG Congress Russia in Moscow March 17-18, where Air Products will highlight the Company's world-leading liquefied natural gas (LNG) process technology and equipment and share some of its latest developments and innovations.

Conference attendees are invited to stop by Air Products' booth, stand 12, to speak with Air Products delegates from its Moscow office about its highly efficient, cost-effective process cycles and main cryogenic heat exchanger equipment, which are the heart of an LNG facility.

In addition, Air Products' LNG specialist Russell Shnitser, will offer a virtual presentation at 12:15 p.m. local time on Wednesday, March 17, titled, "Liquefaction Technology for Large-Scale Russian LNG."

Air Products' proprietary LNG technology, vital to helping meet the world's increasing energy needs and desire for clean energy, processes and cryogenically liquefies valuable natural gas for consumer and industrial use. For over 50 years Air Products has manufactured LNG heat exchangers operated in 20 countries around the world. 

Air Products' LNG technology and equipment are operating in Russia at Yamal LNG, the largest LNG production and export facility in Russia and the largest project ever of its kind to be located in the Arctic. For this project, Air Products supplied three MCR® Main Cryogenic Heat Exchangers that were incorporated into Air Products' proprietary AP-C3MR LNG process system. This technology and equipment produce 5.5 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) of LNG per train, for an overall 16.5 mtpa production at the three-train facility. The plant went onstream in 2017.

Air Products' LNG process technology and equipment, in place at some of the most remote locations around the world, takes natural gas and unlocks its value by liquefying it and making it possible to economically ship it. The LNG is eventually re-gasified for energy use.

A majority of total worldwide LNG is produced with Air Products' technology. In support of the LNG industry, Air Products provides process technology and key equipment for the natural gas liquefaction process for large export plants, small and mid-sized LNG plants, floating LNG plants and LNG peak shavers. Upstream, Air Products provides both nitrogen and natural gas dehydration membrane systems for offshore platforms. Downstream, Air Products provides membrane nitrogen generators for LNG carriers, and land-based membrane and cryogenic nitrogen systems for LNG import terminals and baseload LNG plants.
