Introduction of the technology of joint treatment of gas of the cenomanian and achimov deposits

The article describes the test results of the joint operation of the Achimov and Cenomanian complex gas treatment facilities at the Urengoy oil, gas and condensate field. The supplyof separation gas from the Achimov facility to the second stage of compression of the Cenomanian facility has increased the energy efficiency of the gas pumping units due to anincrease in the load. Application of the layouts for joint exploitation of the Cenomanian and Achimov fields is future-oriented at the final stage of the development of the Cenomanian deposit.
Materials and methods
Low temperature separation and gas compression
Results
The Gazprom dobycha Urengoy LLC successfully tested the technology of joint operation of the Cenomanian and Achimov field facilities. In carrying out these tests, the scheme for transporting the separation gas from the Achimov gas treatment plant was implemented separately from the treated gas from the Cenomanian and Valanginian treatment facilities.
Conclusions
Experience gained from joint operation of the Cenomanian and Valanginian oil fields underlies the technical solutions developed for joint operation of the Cenomanian and Achimovsky projects. One of the promising solutions aimed at providing necessary loadfor the booster compressor stations of the Cenomanian Gas Treatment Plants is supply of Achimovsky Gas Treatment Plant separation to the 2nd gas compression stage.The use of booster capacities of Cenomanian gas treatment plants to compress the gas of Achimov gas treatment plants in the future will allow to ensure optimum loading of the BCS, to cancel their reconstruction for capacity reduction, to postpone the introduction of Achimov gas treatment plants for later periods.
