B- Projects: (From 4/2013 till 2/2016)
Qasr Compression Station Project:
1. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Qasr is a large, normally pressured gas-condensate reservoir located in the
Western desert of Egypt approximately 525 km west of Cairo. The field is
operated by Khalda Petroleum COMPANY, a joint venture between Apache
Corporation and Egyptian General Petroleum COMPANY (EGPC).
Field production is initially handled at the Start of Line (SOL) Qasr Plant. After
initial treatment (cooling and water removal) the gas/condensate is exported
to a combination of the Salam and Tarek gas plants for further treatment. The
Qasr gas and condensate currently free flows from the wellheads through the
Qasr Phase I and Phase II facilities and export pipelines to the SHAMS
manifold and Salam gas plant under reservoir pressure. As the reservoir
pressure declines the peak gas rate of 800 mmscfd will no longer be
achievable.
The Qasr Compression Project (hereafter referred to as the “Project”) is
designed to improve recovery as the reservoir production rate and pressure
decline.
The Project scope comprises:
Gas turbine driven single stage compressor sets
Condensate export pumps

3. Utility systems
1.1 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
1.1.1 Main Power Generation:
Power for the existing plant is currently provided by on site dual fuel turbine
driven generation (MPU’s) QA-G-8001A/B, together with on-site emergency
diesel generator sets. Power from each of the main gas turbine generator
sets is connected to an existing 11KV switchgear QAL- 8001 and thereafter
sub distributed throughout the plant areas by means of a number of
switchboards located in substations. The proposed additional electrical power
distribution arrangement for the compression project consists of an
additional MPU QA-G-8001C located adjacent to the existing MPU’s,
connected to the existing 11KV switchgear QA-L-8001.The new MPU shall be
relocated from existing facilities to Qasr to operate in conjunction with the
two existing MPU’s.
1.1.2 Emergency Power Generation:
Emergency power shall be provided by a diesel driven synchronous
generator, rated to supply the peak emergency load at 400V AC.
The package shall be capable of starting and running without the aid of any
external power or utilities assuming fully charged batteries and shall be
capable of automatic start, load acceptance and stop, initiated by local or
remote signals.
The diesel driven emergency generation package shall be designed for
unattended standby and stand-alone operation.
The Emergency generator shall be located in a 'non-hazardous' area adjacent
to the new LER.
1.1.3 Power Distribution Network:
The electrical system for Qasr Compression project shall be fed from existing
MV switchgear (QA-L-8004) at Phase II substation. The Qasr Compression
electrical system comprises of two LV power centers (QA-L-8013) & (QA-L-
8014) both feeding a quantity of 4 Turbo compressor MCC’s (QA-L-8015-18)
and 4 Plant auxiliary MCC’s (QA-L-8019-22).
Each of the two power centers is fed by two new 11/0.4KV 2.5MVA
transformers (2 out of 3 configurations). An extension of three MV cubicles is
needed in the existing MV switchgear (QA-L-8004) at Phase II substation to
be used with other existing spare cubicle to feed the 4 new 2.5MVA
transformers.
In addition, two new auxiliary service panel boards (QA-ASPB-01 & QA-
ASPB-02) shall be installed to feed all plant indoor / outdoor lighting panels,
outdoor power distribution panels, welding outlets, space heaters (for MCC’s,
3
4. power centers and new transformers), heat tracing panels, cathodic
protection system and any other small power system.
The two auxiliary service panel boards shall be fed from (QA-L-8019) and
(QA-L-8021) respectively through two new isolating transformers (QA-IT-001
& QA-IT-002) each rated 250KVA.
2. My responsibilities:
1- Review the detailed engineering documents developed by the
Egyptian engineering company ENPPI (Engineering for the
petroleum and process industries) against the feed study
developed by the English company Genesis.
2- Supervise the construction activities.
3- Execute the pre-commissioning activities.
4- Supervise the commissioning activities.
