Atlas Copco HGR Cargo Compressor

The Atlas Copco HGR Cargo Compressor is an oil‑lubricated piston compressor specifically engineered for reliquefaction of boil‑off gas on LNG (and LPG) carriers, delivering high‑pressure compression in a compact, ship‑ready package. The supplied category identifies the equipment as Cargo Compressor (Reliquefaction), and it is normally installed in the cargo machinery area, compressor room, manifold or cargo piping system according to the listed equipment. In that listed role, its primary purpose is to transfer, compress, contain or monitor liquefied-gas cargo and its vapour. Cargo compressors, hoses, manifolds and gas-detection systems have different functions, but all require compatible materials, gas-tight integrity and hazardous-area controls. The model designation identifies the listed configuration, but no additional performance, approval or construction detail is inferred from the model code beyond the information supplied in the source record. The source metadata also states capacity: 2-stage, 500 kW. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

Common failures & inspection points

Seal, hose or joint leakage releases cargo vapour and causes gas alarms, pressure loss or visible leakage
Compressor, valve or transfer-equipment wear reduces capacity and causes abnormal temperature or flow
Cooling or reliquefaction faults cause rising cargo pressure and reduced process performance
Gas-detector or control faults cause unreliable monitoring, nuisance alarms or blocked cargo operations
Mechanical damage, incompatible handling or poor support causes hose, piping or connection deterioration

Service & Maintenance

Inspect gas-tight seals, hoses, valves, compressors or manifolds, bonding and hazardous-area electrical equipment according to the listed item. Review gas alarms, pressure and cargo-operation history. Verify purge, isolation and emergency shutdown interfaces under approved cargo procedures. Refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure for pressure, temperature and service limits.
