Abstract

Title: Method and apparatus for compressing a gas In a method for compressing a gas (G), the gas is compressed in a compressor having an intermediate stage and a final stage, an intermediate cooler (R1) for cooling the gas downstream of the intermediate stage and a final cooler (R2) for cooling the gas downstream of the final compression stage, a refrigerant fluid, coming from a source (B) is divided into a first flow and a second flow, the first flow (21) is sent to cool the intermediate cooler and the second flow (11) is sent to cool the final cooler, the first and second heated flows being at different temperatures, the first heated flow is sent to provide heat to an element (A) producing a first cooled flow and the second heated flow is mixed with the first cooled flow and the mixture (2) is sent to the source.
