Abstract

Disclosed are a gas to liquids (GTL)—floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) system that can be used in offshore oil-gas fields or stranded gas fields and a method for producing synthetic fuel using the same. More particularly, the disclosure relates to a GTL-FPSO system capable of producing liquid synthetic fuel from gas extracted from stranded gas fields or associated gas extracted from oil-gas fields, including a reforming reactor and a liquid hydrocarbon producer, and a method for producing the same.
