Claim 13:
14. A natural gas liquefaction installation, arranged at the surface of a body of water, comprising:
at least one air-cooled heat exchanger, the at least one air-cooled heat exchanger including a tube bundle configured to receive a flow that is to be cooled, and a fan configured to cause a flow of air to circulate across the tube bundle;
a water-sprayer;
a desalinizer including a salt water pickup in the body of water, the desalinizer being coupled upstream to the water-sprayer,
the water-sprayer including at least one spray nozzle opening onto the tube bundle, the at least one spray nozzle being directed towards tubes of the tube bundle so as to spray liquid demineralized water coming from the desalinizer into contact with the tubes of the tube bundle,
