Does anyone know of a good resource/design guideline/calc for the design of a LNG gasification terminal boil off recondenser?

Specifically a typical top packed bed co current type.

Been scouring the web and not finding much. I appreciate the specific design is fairly proprietary, but this is just for concept, so a generic sizing will do.

There is a brief discussion on heat transfer effects in liquid dispersed contactors starting from page 14-54 in Perry Chem Engg Handbook 7th edn. - see if this helps.
 
Gas Processing news had some good articles from Vopak and JFE Engineering. More compact BOG recondensers have been designed using static mixers.
Otherwise it'll be more generic info from textbooks etc. Coulson and Richardson v.6
 
Unfortunately C&R vol 6 doesn't cover this type of condenser.
