Liquefied Natural GasManages the entire LNG life-cycle from product process scheduling to capturing physical transactions and tracking best available physical positions

Producing, transporting, loading/unloading, storing and regasifying Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) entails major operational challenges in addition to managing the associated financial business processes.

Liquefied Natural Gas 8.0

Allegro addresses these issues by integrating all physical and financial aspects to manage the entire LNG life-cycle from the liquification of natural gas, to LNG, to the re-gasification of LNG back to natural gas. The Allegro LNG component does this in addition to tying seamlessly with many other critical aspects of the LNG life-cycle.

The comprehensive functionality provides the scheduling of both the liquification and regasification processes for the LNG inventory, along with modeling the input, output and loss for both processes. Additionally, it assesses the quality rating of a process with pricing adjustments to valuation of inventory. And finally, it is completely integrated with numerous other key components in the Allegro system, allowing for a comprehensive, seamless management process for the entire LNG life-cycle.
