FLEET

Our experience helps us achieve predictable outcomes for our client-partners, providing for the safe, efficient flow of energy.
As the owner and operator of one of the largest fleet of floating storage and regasification units (FSRUs) in the industry, Excelerate Energy has accumulated substantial expertise in floating LNG system integration and operation. Excelerate’s FSRUs, are purpose-built LNG tankers that incorporate onboard equipment for the vaporization of LNG and delivery of high-pressure natural gas. These vessels load in the same manner as standard LNG tankers at traditional liquefaction terminals and also retain the flexibility to discharge in three distinct ways. These are:

As a liquid at a conventional LNG receiving terminal;
As a gas through the FSRU’s connection with a subsea buoy in the hull of the ship; and
As a gas through a high-pressure gas manifold located forward of the vessel’s LNG loading arms.

EXCELERATE ENERGY’S FLEET

FSRUs fleet

To accomplish the task of offshore LNG vaporization, our FSRUs may be operated in one of three ways:

Closed-loop mode, in which steam from the FSRU boilers is used to heat fresh water circulated through the shell-and-tube vaporizers in the regasification plant. This results in minimal usage of seawater by the FSRU;
Open-loop mode, in which relatively warm seawater is drawn in through the FSRU’s sea chests. This warm seawater is used as a heat source and passed through the shell of the shell-and-tube vaporizers, causing the vaporization of the LNG. During this process, the temperature of the seawater is lowered by approximately 13 degrees Fahrenheit (7 degrees Celsius). For this reason, the open-loop mode is not applicable for water temperatures below 45 degrees Fahrenheit;
Combined mode, in which seawater at temperatures between 45 and 58 degrees Fahrenheit can be used when heated by steam from the FSRU boilers to provide sufficient heat for the vaporization of the LNG.
Even though our FSRUs are constructed with preset regasification capabilities, all of our vessels can be modified to provide increased regasification rates to meet the specific requirements of our customers.
