ONSHORE PRODUCTION FACILITIES

Wood Group has the experience to design and engineer onshore production facilities in isolated regions, where there are environmental and other challenges.

Onshore Production Facilities

Wood Group's extensive experience and wide-range of expertise means we can tackle multi-disciplined projects, such as the design and building of oil and gas production facilities.

Onshore projects have been executed in the U.S., Russia, Argentina, Bolivia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Chile, Egypt, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, India and Indonesia. Wood Group responds to client needs with key personnel to engineer any type of onshore facility including:

  • Oil treating
  • Water treating & injection
  • Heavy oil production facilities in Canada, Venezuela and also conventional heavy oil facilities in Canada
  • Gas treating & injection/export
  • Power generation
  • Infrastructure development

Wood Group provides first-in-class production facility work, including, but not limited to, design, engineering and upgrading. Near Andrews, Texas USA, Wood Group completed one production facility project, consisting of facility modifications and additions to optimize the production of this CO2 tertiary project. Wood Group's work scope included engineering and sizing of "F" compressor (14 MMscfD @ 1,650 psig), which is a skid-mounted Ariel JGC/6 compressor (with suction and discharge bottles) driven by a Westinghouse 4,370 Bhp synchronous electric motor. Included in this project were:

  • Four scrubbers
  • Gas coolers
  • Interconnecting pipe and automated block valves
  • Compressor panel
  • Engineering and sizing of a new inlet filter separator
  • Upgrading "E" compressor, which involved replacing the gas engine with a synchronous electric motor
  • Recylindering the fourth stage and upgrading the control panel
  • De-bottlenecking gas dehydration to improve efficiencies by installing air-cooled glycol heat exchanger and replacing the bubble cap trays in the contactor with valve trays to decrease pressure drop and foaming tendencies
  • Upgrading the electrical system to accommodate the addition of two electric motors and other equipment
