feed-gas compressors are located in Trains I and II. They are called three-
stage compressors by process personnel because they have one main intake and two
side-stream intakes.
On
the plant, compression of the feed gas is described as going through a total of four
stages:
• stage one in the booster compressor
•
stages two, three and four in the feed-gas compressor
Each feed-gas compressor has two casings. The first two compressor
process stages
are
housed in a horizontally-split, low-pressure casing. Impellers are mounted back-
to-back, similar to the booster compressors. The third stage is housed in a vertically-
split, high-pressure barrel casing. Impellers for all stages
are mounted on the same
shaft and driven by the same steam turbine.
