A number of companies have been involved in the development of offshore plants and have furnished an entire series of self-contained units for offshore uses ranging from the production of methanol, LPG, ammonia or urea from natural gas or associated gas, to complete seawater desalination plants mounted on barges. One of the latest design concepts for an offshore plant is the Salzgitter Group's innovative gas liquefaction plant on a tension leg platform (TLP). An outstanding feature of the design is that it is actually a TLP and jack-up platform combined. The proposed plant is suited for use in water depths of 250 to 350 m but can also be designed for water depths of 1,000 m.
