There are other aspects to an LNG regasification terminal that need more attention.
8There are several types of LNG regasification models.
8SWOT analysis of heat energy supplies for a cogeneration system that can built around an LNG terminal is documented
8A terminal can also supply cold for entities located in close proximity to a terminal, such as cold storage companies, fish processing companies and others.
8A whole eco-structure can be built around these businesses.
8A SWOT analysis if carried here of such a cold supply system

Given India’s long coastline, is tank vessel loading an ecoomic option?
8Cost considerations may come in the way as of now but in the long run, there can be demand from customers.
8A SWOT anaysis shows the advantages and disadvantages of vessel loading options.
8There is also the possibility of storage of LNG and there can be different types of LNG storage tanks such as:
-- Onshore terminal
-- Offshore gravity-based terminal
-- Regasification tanker
-- Offshore storage and regasification terminal
8LNG storage like crude oil storage can be mandated as policy. Comparison of gas storage costs in tanks or in underground reservoirs is also calculated as also the operating costs of such facilities
8The quantum of optimal stocks to be maintanined by a regasification terminal for protection of consumers is documented as well.

Then again, there is the whole possibility of loading LNG on rail tankers.
There are three cases where using LNG rail tankers can be viable:
8Having a gas consumer that has tank(s) with adequate capacity (minimum 3,000 m3)
8Owning an adequately large tank or a reloading base
8Having several large LNG consumers that have sidings or are located by railroad tracks.
8The SWOT analysis clearly shows a good number of drawbacks to offering and developing this kind of service. But if the right clients are found, the provision of the service may actually be profitable.

Rail transportation is another area where LNG usage can become cost effective either using LNG completely or partially (with dual fuel installations).
8LNG or dual fuel engines are now available and the cost economics of such usage is discussed.
8It is at the fleet modernization stage that dual use engines can be brought in for the railways.
8Interestingly, the use of tanker trucks to drive gas usage in areas previously not convered by gas pipelines is also documented.
8PNG using tanker trucks is also an option, according to the analysis.
8In the long run, it is argued, that the gas price must be demand driven instaed of supply driven and it must settle around the prices of oil derivatives.

For reference purposes, the website carries here a comprehensive cost benefit analysis of using trucks to ferry LNG.
8A lack of piping infrastructure has forced regasification companies to look at the trucking options seriously in India.
8A SWOT analysis of using LNG tanker trucks is given here.
8The analysis begins from the kind of optimal tank capacity – as it is the highest cost element in an LNG regasification terminal -- that should be set up if trucking is an important elmement of the RLNG distribution model.
8There is also the possibility of using tankers to deliver LNG as bunkering fuel.
8The technological constraints and challenges are discussed.
8The end use of LNG too, in terms of its usage as CNG is also investigated and an assumption is provided wherein entities with fleet strengths of 20 vehicles parked in a single place can build CNG stations supplied by LNG tankers.
