Abstract: Process for liquefying natural gas in a cryogenic heat exchanger by flowing in indirect contact with refrigerant fluid entering heat exchanger at a first inlet at temperature T0 and pressure P1, and flowing through the exchanger as co-current with the natural gas stream, leaving the heat exchanger in the liquid state, then being expanded at the cold end of the exchanger to return to gaseous state at a pressure P′1 P1 and temperature T1 T0, before leaving the hot end of exchanger by outlet orifice in gaseous state T0. The fluid is then reliquefied to the inlet of the exchanger via compression followed by partial condensation and phase separation, a first liquid phase taken to the first inlet, a first gaseous portion compressed by a second compressor and cooled in desuperheater by contact with portion of the first liquid phase, prior to condensing in a second condenser.
