Abstract

La presente invencion se refiere a un metodo para enfriar un sistema de licuefaccion para la licuefaccion de una corriente de gas que contiene hidrocarburos. El metodo para enfriar el sistema de licuefaccion comprende: a) realizar un procedimiento de preenfriamiento para enfriar la etapa de preenfriamiento, b) realizar un procedimiento de enfriamiento criogenico para enfriar la etapa de enfriamiento principal. En donde b) comprende formar una corriente de enfriamiento principal (201) que cumpla con una especificacion predeterminada de Cn+. La corriente de enfriamiento principal (201) se forma a partir de al menos una corriente auxiliar que no es la corriente de gas preenfriada que contiene hidrocarburos, y el procedimiento de enfriamiento criogenico y el procedimiento de preenfriamiento se realizan al menos parcialmente de manera simultaneaThe present invention relates to a method for cooling a liquefaction system for the liquefaction of a gas stream containing hydrocarbons. The method for cooling the liquefaction system comprises: a) performing a precooling procedure to cool the precooling stage, b) performing a cryogenic cooling process to cool the main cooling stage. Where b) comprises forming a main cooling current (201) that meets a predetermined Cn + specification. The main cooling current (201) is formed from at least one auxiliary current that is not the precooled gas stream containing hydrocarbons, and the cryogenic cooling process and the precooling procedure are carried out at least partially simultaneously
