Unit 1000 Inlet Metering Feed gas from the OPF enters unit 1000 between 65 to 95 bar at ~20 o C. The gas leaves the unit at 60 bar at temperature of ~0 o C. The feed gas from U 1000 is fed to U 1100. Unit 1000 consists of three parallel meter runs, each consisting of a feed gas mono-cyclone separator (V-1001 A/B/C), and a flow/pressure control station. This maintains the feed gas supply pressure at 60 bar to the LNG plant. Each meter run is capable of supplying 33. 3% of the overall design gas Flow for the two LNG trains. Prigorodnoye LNG Overview

Purpose of Unit 1400 In unit 1400, the feedgas is progressively cooled until it condenses at around – 158 degrees C and is subcooled to – 162 before running down to the storage tanks. This reduces the overall volume around 600 times allowing one LNG tanker able to carry 600 times more than if the natural gas remained in a gaseous state. (135, 000 m 3 LNG = 81, 000 m 3! gas) Prigorodnoye LNG Overview
REFRIGERATION PRINCIPLES Compressing a gas makes its pressure and temperature rise because of the energy we have given it. Depressuring this gas again would result in the pressure and temperature returning to the same point as we started. We have not changed this gas in anyway! Prigorodnoye LNG Overview

Purpose of Unit 1400 Treated feed gas from the mercury removal unit (U 1350) is cooled against low pressure PMR in E-1402 and fed to the scrub columns. The scrub columns, C-1401 & C-1402, remove heavy hydrocarbons (C 5+) and the LPG’s from the natural gas stream for 2 reasons. • These gases will condense too early in the fractionation section • The LPG’s are used as the refrigerant in U 1400 cooling circuits. The bottom product of the scrub columns is fed to the fractionation unit (U 1500). Prigorodnoye LNG Overview

Process Description - PMR The PMR (pre-mixed refrigerant) system utilizes pressurized PMR, a mixture of ethane and propane, evaporating at two pressures. This supplies refrigeration to the NG feed circuit, the MR circuit and the fractionation unit. The PMR is compressed by gas turbine driven PMR compressor K 1440, power assisted by PMR compressor helper motor/generator (KM-1440). Prigorodnoye LNG Overview

Process Description - MR MR – Mixed Refrigerant The refrigeration to fully liquefy the feed gas is provided by MR (mixed refrigerant). This is a mixture of nitrogen, methane, ethane and propane. The MR system is a closed loop refrigeration system utilizing two compressors in series, K 1420/30. They share a single shaft and are gas turbine driven. The LP MR compressor (K-1420) is a single stage axial machine and the HP MR Compressor (K‑ 1430) is a two stage centrifugal machine. The MR compressor starter/helper motor (KM‑ 1420) is used for starting the compressor, and also to provide additional shaft power to maximize LNG production. Prigorodnoye LNG Overview

Process Description - End Flash System Nitrogen in the LNG stream leaving the MCHE’s is removed in the end flash vessel. The nitrogen and some light hydrocarbons leave the top of the end flash vessel and exchange cooling in the light MR/end flash gas exchanger. The gas is then compressed by the end flash gas compressor (K 1450) and routed via the end flash compressor after-cooler to the HP fuel gas system. Prigorodnoye LNG Overview

Unit 6200 Flare system Why do we have a Flare System? The flare system is used to collect and dispose vapour and liquid in a safe manner. (Safe disposal of Hydrocarbons, the first system online and the last system shut down) Flare Systems • Emergency operational system for cold, light, dry streams, liquid and vapour. • Emergency operational system for warm, heavy, streams, liquid and vapour. • Emergency operational system for LNG storage and loading, vapour. • Operational flare system, vapour. • LNG disposal system, liquid and vapour (start-up). • Spare flare can be used for cold and warm service. Prigorodnoye LNG Overview F L A R E
Unit 6200 Flare system Warm Flare System (FWW) All the warm vapours are collected into a single 48” header which slopes to the liquid knock-out drum V-6201. The header is continuously purged with LP fuel gas at sufficient flow rate to keep velocity at the tip of flare stack. Nitrogen connection is also given as back-up purge source. Warm Liquid Disposal System (DHC) The warm liquids from manual drains are collected in a 4” header and routed to V 6201. Light components are flashed-off and burned in A-6201 (FWW) The accumulated liquid in V-6201 is pumped and transferred to warm liquid burner A-6204 by P-6201 A/B via 6” line. Prigorodnoye LNG Overview
Unit 6200 Flare system Cold Flare System (FCD) Cold dry and light hydrocarbon vapours from unit 1400, 1500 and 1600 are collected into a 48” header which slopes to the cold flare KO drum V-6202. The header is continuously purged with LP fuel gas. Nitrogen connection is also given as back-up purge source. Vapour from the cold flare KO drum is directed to the cold flare (A‑ 6202) through a 56” line. HP fuel gas is used as atomising gas to flare stack A-6202 Cold Liquid Disposal System (DLH) All the cold liquids are collected into two 12” headers that are routed to the cold flare KO Drum (V‑ 6202). flashed vapours are removed and burned in A-6202. Operational Flare System (FOP) Any operationally initiated release is vented to a separate 16” FOP header. The vented gas is routed to V-6203 and burned in operational flare (A-6211) Prigorodnoye LNG Overview
