5.1.5 ADGAS Centrifugal Compressors
ADGAS uses centrifugal compressors to:
• raise low-pressure feed gas to 780psig/52barg for
the liquefaction process in
Trains I and II
• compress refrigerants (MCR, propane, etc.) as part of the gas liquefaction
cooling process
•
supply air for process, instruments and service to all areas except Sulphur
STOREX
Feed Gas Compressors
Train III receives only high-pressure gas (780psg/52barg) directly from the gas fields.
This does not need to be compressed before starting the liquefaction process.
Trains I and II receive feed gas either at high pressure (780psg/52barg),
direct from
the gas fields or at lower pressures from ADMA gas-oil separation plant. Gas comes
from different stages of the ADMA gas-oil separation process at pressures of 0psig
(atmospheric), 35psig, 75psig and 230psig. All these have to be compressed to the
same high pressure (780psg/52barg) before starting the liquefaction process.
Two
booster compressors connected in parallel take gas coming from ADMA at
atmospheric pressure. They raise this gas pressure from 0psig to 35psig. This gas
then goes to Train I and Train II.
Each train has a feed gas compressor that increases
the pressure in three compressor
process stages to a final pressure of 780psg/52barg.
Note: ADGAS uses barg units for pressures
in the liquefaction process; psig units are
used for feed gas entering the system from ADMA.
The feed gas compressor
process stages also take gas
directly from ADMA gas-oil
separation plant at 35psig, 75psig and 230psig. These enter the compressors as side
streams. The feed gas compression process is shown in
Figure 5.15.
