OIL PRODUCTION AND BATTERIES

·         PETROVERA SENLAC HEAVY OIL BATTERY

        Debottlenecked the battery with two projects.

·          Conversion of KVAERNER treater to FWKO. Removal of 7000 m3/d of water from battery stream.

·         Installation of field water injection facilities. Removal of 5000 m3/d of produced water at a satellite.  The facilities included a FWKO, tanks, and pumps.

·         ENCANA  WAYNE Dalum Sweet Oil Battery & Satellites Pipeline Construction

Design of a sweet oil battery for a total of 23 EnCana wells located in 27-19W4.  The 23 producing wells have a shut-in pressure of approximately 9800 kPa (1420 psi), and a flowing pressure of about 1034 to 1380 kPa (150 to 200 psi).  The battery was assembled from existing EnCana inventory and new facilities. Total production design:

Sales oil:                       350 m3/D

Gas:                               140 103 m3/D

Water (Inj.):                  300 m3/D

·         PETROVERA MARSHALL HEAVY OIL BATTERY REVAMP

Upgraded facilities and pipelines of Petrovera?s heavy oil battery to meet new regulations.  This included new tanks, a separator, flow lines, pumps and PLC control.   

·         PROBE EXPLORATION INC. DEVON SATELLITES & OIL BATTERY

Full EPCM for two satellites and the central treating, storage and sales facility. Facilities are designed to handle 2,500 BBL/D of oil at a 5% cut and include vapor recovery at each site. These sites are located in a heavily populated area.  

·         THUNDER ENERGY INC. ROSALIND BATTERY ADDITIONS

Designed and installed two FWKOs and pumps to remove produced water at satellites to debottleneck water handling at the Thunder Energy main battery (also installed by Falcon see next entry).

·         THUNDER ENERGY INC. SOUR OIL BATTERY

Complete design, Project Management and Procurement of 2000 BBL/D 20 API Sour Crude Battery at Rosalind, Alberta.  Total Project Cost = $3 million.  Facility included a full vapour recovery system.

·         JORDAN PETROLEUM LTD. OIL FIELD UPGRADE

Engineering evaluation and detailed design to upgrade oil facilities at Parkman, Saskatchewan.  Additional oil flow = 2400 BBL/D produced fluid.

·         CANADIAN 88 CRUDE/CONDENSATE BLENDING FACILITY

Performed all Process and  Design for a heavy crude/condensate blending facility including treating and water handling.  Project postponed due to increase in condensate prices.

·         CANADIAN 88 OLDS PLANT VAPOUR HANDLING REVAMP

Designed and installed sour condensate vapour handling system to eliminate H2S odors in condensate storage tanks.

·         GULF BRAZEAU 12-29 OIL WELL TIE-IN TO PETROCANADA PLANT

Fast tracked 2000 BBL/D oil well tie ?in to Petro Canada Brazeau plant.  Project completed in less than one month.  Falcon handled full EPCM including purchase orders, administration and payments.  Cost was $0.75 million.

·         GULF PANNY-HOUSE CREEK BATTERY UPGARDE AND 60 KM PIPELINE

Installed 60.3 km of 6 inch diameter pipeline north of Red Earth, Alberta.  The project also included all pumping, treating, storage, and PLC instrumentation. A full EPCM project, fast tracked and completed in 6 months at a total cost of $9.5 million.

·         GULF WESTEROSE BATTERY GATHERING SYSTEM BOTTLENECK STUDY

Performed PIPEFLO simulations to model multiphase flow of crude oil, gas and water to determine maximum capacity of gathering lines, satellites and manifolds.  Pressure surveys were conducted to match well test data with PIPEFLO model.  A good fit was obtained between the simulated and field data. Actual versus predicted increased production was within 5%.

·         GULF WESTEROSE SOLUTION GAS COMPRESSOR INSTALLATION

Installation of 4800 HP Solar centaur Turbine Driven Tandem C-160 Compressor (refurbished).  The project included and inlet separator, a building to house the compressor, panel, scrubbers, instrument air compressor, PLC, MCC revamp, aerial cooler and all utilities and processing piping.  The project was fast tracked and full EPCM.  The total cost was $5 million; the compressor was on-line in 5 months; additional production of 4000 BBL/D was achieved.

·         CABRE EXPLORATION LTD. JORCAM FIELD UP-GRADE

Installed two Corlac inclined FWKO at two locations to debottleneck field.  First site 54? I/D/ FWKO with Solution Gas Compressor (1500 HP), local water injection (REDA pump) & oil pumping to central battery, Second site 36? I. D FWKO with local water injection (REDA pump) & oil pumping to central battery.
