Reciprocating compressor for offshore applications (stationary)
Burckhardt Compression AG
The Laby®-GI was designed for MAN Diesel's ME-GI dual fuel propulsion system (DFDM) for LNG carriers. Due to various reliquefaction options the BOG can either be used as fuel or it can be liquefied and returned to the tanks.
Offshore applications FSRU, LNG FPSO and LNG RV
The fully balanced design, resulting in the elimination of unbalanced forces and moments, enables us to offer this new type of compressor for other fields of applications that have high requirements in terms of vibrations. Such applications include FSRU, LNG FPSO and LNG RV where the deck structure significantly affects the compressor specifications.
Ease of operation and maintenance
Due to the noncomplex compressor system the operation and maintenance can be easily carried out by low qualified crews and maintenance staff. Thus, maintenance and operation costs are minimized.
Highest reliability and availability
Our references in LNG and offshore applications, the type approval process and the experience in engineering and manufacturing reciprocating compressors state the high safety level and the outstanding reliability and availability of the system.
