Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system for treating and cooling a hydrocarbon stream, comprising—a gas treatment stage comprising a pre-cooler to cool at least part of the hydrocarbon feed against cooling water, —a first cooling stage comprising one or more first water coolers, —a second cooling stage comprising one or more second water coolers. The system comprises a cooling water unit arranged to receive a stream of cooling water and supply a first part of the stream of cooling water to a chilling unit to obtain a stream of chilled cooling water and pass the stream of chilled cooling water to a selection of the at least one pre-cooler, the one or more first water coolers and the one or more second water coolers.
