In some mature gas markets the number of proposed
LNG terminals is more than double the number of
existing and approved plants combined. The numbers
under study are even greater. Which ones will ultimately
be profitable depends not only on supply/demand factors,but also on a strong grasp of design options and the
associated costs. In fact, for regasification owners, the
ability to secure both customers and a steady supply of
gas may be significantly impacted by the plant’s cost-
competitive position relative to other LNG terminal points.
Our QUE$TOR™ LNG software suite is aimed at helping
anyone who needs to design, specify, and estimate costs
for new LNG facilities, with easy ways to compare the
impact of different design options for your facility – or that
of your potential competitors.
The initial module in the QUESTOR™ LNG family,
Regasification, helps you estimate costs and compare
concepts on a global basis with a fast, reliable cost
calculation engine. There are many factors that can affect
the cost-competitive positioning of an LNG plant, including
local gas specifications and the costs associated with the
NGL removal to meet these specific specifications.

QUE$TOR™ LNGRegasification
An integrated software system leveragingregional cost data for design and cost
estimation of LNG facilities
Other factors affecting costs and risk include the method
of vapourisation used at a specific LNG plant, type of
tanks required and the civils construction work for marine
slips and other structures. Dredging material disposal
varies by location, the cost of which can vary by a factorof seven depending on which area you are working in.
QUE$TOR LNG™ is an extension of our popular QUE$TOR™
software suite for upstream oil and gas project cost
analysis. Used by more than 500 companies in 40 countries,
QUE$TOR™ Onshore and Offshore modules provide a
consistent methodology for generating cost estimates and
optimizing development plans. The Regasification module is
available as an add-on to QUE$TOR™ Onshore.
QUESTOR™ LNG Regasification software helps companies designing
approved or prospective plants model designs and compare costs,
quickly and with confidence.

IHS Forecaster™ > QUE$TOR™ LNG – Regasification
QUE$TOR™ LNG Regasification: How it Works
At the heart of QUE$TOR™ is the calculation engine
that provides engineering definition for the plant in that
location and to meet the specifications and end product
to be delivered. The regional databases are populated
with unit rates for equipment items, materials, fabrication,
installation, hook-up and commissioning, and other
project costs.
QUE$TOR™ modules are benchmarked against actual
project costs, with the cost databases continuously
developed to reflect the latest changes in technology
and global costs. The result is a highly accurate cost
estimation system and a consistent methodology forevaluating facilities projects anywhere in the world, yet in
a regional context.
QUE$TOR™ LNG Regasification builds on this proven
approach to provide a consistent methodology for
generating cost estimates and optimizing the plans for
regasification facilities.
For example, cost engineers and project teams can use
QUE$TOR™ to estimate at the equipment item level for:
• Marine infrastructure including jetties, piers and
marine slips• LNG storage with single, double, full or membrane
containment tanks
• LNG processing, when additional processing is required
to meet outlet gas specification, nitrogen injection and/
or Demethaniser, Ethaniser and Stabliser
• LNG pumping – in-tank pumps, processing feed pumps
and send out pumps
• Liquids storage – LPG or gasoline
• Vapour handling – boil-off compressors, recondensor
and vapour return blowers
• Vapourisation – open rack, submerged combustion,
intermediate fluid
• All ancillary utilities: controls and communications,
power generation and civil works

Fast modeling, more time for sensitivity analysis
• Worldwide cost and technical databases, which can be
easily copied and edited
• Generates complete cost profiles, CAPEX and OPEX
• Calculates results in seconds, allowing you to spend
additional time modelling sensitivities and different
approaches to a project
• Saves thousands of manhours in gathering raw data andbuilding complex spreadsheets
Who can benefit from QUE$TOR™ LNG
Regasification?
• Oil and gas companies considering LNG plants to
monetise stranded gas assets
• Independent regasification plant owners and operators
• LNG shippers, purchasers and end-users considering
risks and options for long-term contracts
• National oil & gas ministries evaluating whether to build
and operate LNG plants to secure domestic gas supply
• Contractors and project finance partners
