Smart Inlet Manifold Units

Description:

Compressorless gas boosting from low-pressure wells, where wellhead pressure is lower than the manifold pressure, using excess pressure from high-pressure wells, which is otherwise throttled to the manifold pressure.

Application Experience:

Developed for:
▸ Gazprom Dobycha Yamburg LLC
▸ Gazpromneft Orenburg
▸ Yurkharovskoye NGKM, NOVATEK JSC
▸ YAMAL LNG (South Tambeyskoye field)

Dependence on Imported Components:

Completely independent
Solution:

▸ Smart inlet manifold unit boosts the pressure of low-pressure wells by utilizing excess pressure from high-pressure wells through ejectors
▸ Main components of the unit – ejectors and in-line separators

Advantages of the Solution:

▸ Liquid separation at the inlet to ejectors using compact in-line separators ensures maximum ejector efficiency
▸ Similarly, by recirculating high-pressure gas after the compressor station, lower pressure can be maintained in the gathering manifold, thereby increasing inflow from wells to the manifold
