Process and utility packages
Boil off gas packages
Boil-off gas (BOG) inevitably forms in cryogenic LNG and LPG storage and transfer as ambient heat vaporizes a small fraction of the liquid. BOG packages recover this vapor, compressing it and either reliquefying it back into the tank or routing it to the fuel gas system, instead of venting or flaring it, protecting tank pressure and product.
