AWE Waitsia Gas Project Stage 1A
AWE LIMITED | Western Australia
Overview
The project connected two new gas wells to the existing Xyris production facility via two new flowlines and a new trunkline.
The Xyris low temperature separation processing facility (previously in care and maintenance) was modified and upgraded with a new gas to gas heat exchanger, new power generation plant and control systems and all remaining equipment was brought back up to operational status. This enabled on-spec gas to be exported to the Parmelia Gas Pipeline.
The Project was completed safely, under the client’s budget and against extremely tight schedule demands. Net sales gas capacity – 10Tj/d.
