Noyabrskneftegaz Improves Technologies for Associated Gas Utilization
Gazpromneft-Noyabrskneftegaz will ensure the processing of associated gas and improve the environmental situation
Gazpromneft-Noyabrskneftegaz is preparing to commission a mobile compressor unit at the Vyngapurovskoye oil and gas condensate field in the YaNAO. It will ensure the annual shipment for processing of up to 17 million cubic meters of associated petroleum gas. This was reported to FederalPress in the company.
“The launch of the unit will allow the company to simultaneously solve several production problems: reduce the impact on the atmosphere, as well as obtain additional volumes of associated gas, which, in synergy with our partners, will be sent for processing. According to a number of technical characteristics, this unit is the only one in Russia, and at the end of the trial period, we are ready to share our experience in its operation with our colleagues,” said Alexey Ogorodov, Director General of Gazpromneft-Noyabrskneftegaz.
Noyabrskneftegaz, the Science and Technology Center of Gazprom Neft and the Moscow State Technical University named after V.I. Bauman. The equipment is mounted without the construction of a capital foundation, which, if necessary, will allow it to be easily moved to other oilfield facilities. The complex tests carried out proved the efficiency and reliability of the installation.
“The trend in the industry is to create mobile, modular and more compact solutions for compressor and other types of equipment. This is due not only to the development of technologies and the availability of materials and solutions, but also to the approach to field development. After the end of the production cycles, the equipment can be easily dismantled, packed and sent to another facility. By doing so, the company seeks to reduce its impact on the environment and make all processes simpler and more efficient,” explained Nikolay Glavnov, Director of Development Programs for the Gas Function of the Gazprom Neft STC Expertise and Functional Development Unit.
