Industrial Maintenance for Compressor Stations
Transporting natural gas via pipelines is very safe and cost-efficient. However, in order for the transportation process to work properly it is imperative that the natural gas be kept at the correct pressure. To accomplish this compressor stations are needed at regular intervals. Let’s take a look at some key components of compressor stations as well as industrial maintenance needs. The ...

Another Dragon takes flight!
The last few weeks have been very busy at Tidy Planet HQ as we have been preparing for yet another Dragon to leave us. Like the previous units the next dragon will also be travelling to The South Caucasus Pipeline (SCP), the pipeline has been built to export gas from Azerbaijan to Georgia and Turkey. Starting near Baku the line follows the original route of the Baku Tbilisi Ceyhan crude oil ...

Fog Provides Cooling for Natural Gas Pipeline Compressor Stations Case Study
High pressure fog enables pipelines to maintain production levels and stay online during hot weather conditions. After new compressor units were installed at a North Carolina compression facility, the cooling systems began to reach capacity causing the compressor to overheat due to hot weather conditions. The plant compression engineer chose MicroCool fog systems to provide adjunct cooling ...

Carbon dioxide gas case study
Application Moisture] is measured in carbon dioxide gas pipelines and processing plants. Problem The presence of moisture in carbon dioxide gas promotes corrosion. Perhaps more significant is the fact that moisture will readily form ice when pressure is reduced. The ice can readily freeze up pressure regulators, valves, and orifice plates causing a loss of flow and even ice expansion damage to ...

HS-200 Used in natural gas production
A unique and proven wastewater treatment system is being used at several natural gas compressor stations. Oil leakage and spills when servicing compressors together with maintenance wash-down water, are being satisfactorily treated with oil removal systems. The systems usually consist of a wastewater holding tank with an oil drain off valve, a coalescing oil/water separator fitted with an oil ...

Boosting gas pipelines to optimum levels - Case Study
As gas pressure drops in the gas pipeline network, the transportation capacity is reduced. Compressor plants are used to boost gas pressure back up to optimum operating levels. Monitoring fuel gas to compressors is typically accomplished with an orifice or turbine meter. Because both of these methods are subject to fouling and failure, they require frequent skilled maintenance in order to ...
