5 training days · 15 modules · hands-on workshops
Understand LNG technology basics and the structure of the global LNG market.
LNG market mapping: teams map the LNG value chain for a major producing country, identifying the key commercial entities, contract structures, and pricing linkages.
Evaluate liquefaction process technologies and plant design.
Liquefaction process comparison: teams compare C3/MR and Optimised Cascade technologies on efficiency, flexibility, cost, and suitable applications for three given project scenarios.
Design and operate LNG storage facilities, marine loading systems, and LNG tankers.
LNG loading operation exercise: teams plan a complete LNG ship loading operation, identifying key steps, safety checks, and emergency shutdown scenarios.
Operate regasification terminals and manage LNG commercial and contractual arrangements.
LNG SPA term sheet: teams negotiate the key commercial terms of an LNG SPA between a seller and a buyer for a 20-year supply arrangement.
Evaluate LNG's evolving role in decarbonisation and explore future market developments.
LNG strategy assessment: teams assess whether a new LNG import terminal is commercially viable for a provided emerging market, evaluating demand, competition, financing, and risk.
