Abstract
La présente invention concerne un procédé de refroidissement d'un système de liquéfaction destiné à liquéfier un flux gazeux contenant des hydrocarbures. Le procédé de refroidissement du système de liquéfaction comprend : a) la réalisation d'une procédure de pré-refroidissement pour refroidir l'étage de pré-refroidissement,b) à effectuer une opération de refroidissement cryogénique pour refroidir l'étage de refroidissement principal. B) comprend la formation d'un courant de refroidissement principal (201) qui répond à une spécification prédéterminée Cn +. Le courant de refroidissement principal (201) est formé à partir d'au moins un courant auxiliaire qui n'est pas le courant de gaz contenant un hydrocarbure pré-refroidi, et la procédure de refroidissement cryogénique et la procédure de pré-refroidissement sont au moins partiellement effectuées simultanément.
