BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 21
By Klavdiya Romakayeva - Trend:
Czech Global Industrial Solutions company supplied 96 pieces of high-temperature ball valves as part of the modernization of the I-V-blocks of the gas purification unit from sulfur compounds using zeolite at Shurtan Oil and Gas Production Department, Trend reports citing Uzbekneftegaz JSC.
According to Uzbekneftegaz JSC, work is being carried out at an accelerated pace to organize stable production and bring product quality indicators in line with international standards. In particular, work is underway to modernize the I-V blocks of the gas purification unit from sulfur compounds using zeolite, located at the head structure of the Shurtan Oil and Gas Production Department.
It is reported that detailed design documentation for the modernization of the gas purification unit from sulfur compounds using zeolite was developed by O'ZLITINEFTGAZ JSC (Head Industry Research and Design Institute of Uzbekistan).
The main goal of the project is to adapt the quality indicators of processed natural gas to the requirements of the O'zDSt-948: 2016 standard and to modernize obsolete devices, pipeline valves and automatic process control systems to increase the gas processing capacities of the units.
Currently, the equipment has been prepared and delivered in stages based on tenders. Some 96 high-temperature ball valves were supplied by the Czech Global Industrial Solutions company.
To date, construction and installation work has been completed and 40 ball valves have been put into operation at the III-block of the installation. Work is also underway to install 14 ball valves on the V-block.
It is noted that construction and installation work under the project is currently being carried out by the general contractor Muborakneftgazmontazh JSC.
As a result of the modernization of the technological unit, four billion cubic meters of natural gas per year will be purified from sulfur using zeolite. Operating the plant at full capacity will avoid a reduction in the volume of processed natural gas.
The Shurtan oil and gas production department is located in the Guzar district of the Kashkadarya region and was commissioned in 1980. The III-block of the shop for gas purification from sulfur using zeolite was put into operation in 1987 and is designed to purify natural gas from sulfur compounds. The design capacity of receiving the installation is four billion cubic meters of natural gas per year, produced from the gas fields of the Shurtan oil and gas production
