Saudi Aramco engineering standard is famous for its strictness. The of three kinds drainage systems including surface water system, closed drain system and sanitary in the booster gas compressor station project are introduced this paper. characteristics all facilities related to have also been described which can help familiarize station.

A multi-connected air-conditioning system having one outdoor unit and four indoor units, with 5 HP constant speed scroll compressor paralleled with 4 HP frequency inverter scroll compressor, was developed. Many experiments were taken under different working conditions and different system parameters. The performances and the operating characteristics were obtained. The oil-back ability was vali...

Peter Bauer, ABB Automation, USA, and Billy Mann, West African Gas Pipeline Company Ltd, discuss the importance of SCADA system integrity to the West African gas pipeline. Gas operators are finding the need for more and more advanced technology to keep up with their data collection and processing requirements. This includes data from smart field devices, increasingly sophisticated control syste...

The features of the use pneumatic systems in drilling equipment for oil and gas production are considered. To improve reliability, it is proposed to introduce a test procedure main element system - compressor. An automated testing compressors has been developed, which implements all program modes allows you determine degree compressor performance

surge and rotating stall phenomena are two dynamic instabilities that occur in both axial and centrifugal compressors. surge is the stream instability phenomenon in compressor that imposes severe damages to the compressors. nowadays, suppressing surge phenomenon is one of the most important issues in oil and gas industries, especially when flow reduction or gas reflux is considered. this resear...

In this paper, an Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm (ACO) is proposed for operations of steady flow gas pipeline. The system is composed of compressing stations linked by pipe legs. The decisions variables are chosen to be the operating turbo compressor number and the discharge pressure for each compressing station. The objective function is the power consumed in the system by these stations. U...

The influence of the ambient air temperature on changes in parameters and thermophysical characteristics gas pumped through underground pipeline was investigated. This done because there are no scientifically sound recommendations for optimal after coolers at compressor station. presence site inversion heat exchange between soil – a change direction along length revealed. It proved that above s...
