NATURAL GAS GATHERING STATION – PROJECT IN NORTHERN GERMANY

Our client, a major company in the energy and resource extraction sector, planned the expansion of its natural gas infrastructure at a strategically advantageous location in northern Germany. The region is known for its well-developed natural gas extraction and offers an ideal geographical position to efficiently inject natural gas into the national supply network. Situated in an area with existing gas infrastructure, the location allows for optimal connection to main supply pipelines and contributes to energy supply security.

Here, we optimized the efficiency of gas extraction and regulated the injected gas volume. The scope of work included planning, engineering, procurement, packaging, assembly, commissioning, and documentation of the facility. Due to the specific requirements, the compressor was designed as a lubricated machine for sour gas processing and equipped with a suction valve unloading system and a variable-speed electric motor for precise flow rate control.
This project plays a crucial role in optimizing gas extraction and distribution, enhancing the efficiency of the natural gas infrastructure, and making a significant contribution to long-term energy supply security.
