NAFTA-GAZ Develops Reusable Modules for Mobile Gas and Improves Project Delivery by 60 Percent - 1

CASE STUDY Bentley Advancing Infrastructure Project Summary Organization Biuro Projektow "Nafta-Gaz” Sp. z o.o. Solution Manufacturing Location Jaslo, Poland Project Objectives • To develop a modular plant for treatment of gas extracted from underground hydrocarbon deposits. • To design reusable modules that can be disassembled, transported, and reassembled at different sites. • To build in flexibility, allowing reconfiguration of modules to enable installation of single or multiple preliminary separators based on individual site conditions. Products Used AutoPIPE, Navigator, OpenPlant PID, OpenPlant Modeler, OpenPlant Isometric Manager, ProStructures NAFTA-GAZ Develops Reusable Modules for Mobile Gas and Improves Project Delivery by 60 Percent Bentley's Applications Help Project Team to Design, Coordinate, and Review 3D Models Fast Facts • Biuro Projektow "Nafta-Gaz” (NAFTA-GAZ) used Bentley's 3D plant design and modeling software to quickly design a flexible, modular natural gas treatment plant. • A long-time user of Bentley applications, NAFTA-GAZ worked with Bentley Partner Centrum Systemow Softdesk (CS Softdesk) to expand the OpenPlant Modeler catalogs to meet the specific project needs. • The project team used referenced drawings and iModels to collaborate on design improvements, delivering a flexible skid design that could be easily reconfigured. • The portable, reusable design reduces the consumption of resources and has a minimal impact on the environment. Working with CS Softdesk, in conjunction with Bentley applications, improved project delivery performance by an estimated 60 percent, compared to using standard CAD and 2D technology. NAFTA-GAZ's innovative approach lowered on-site construction costs, and saved time on plant and equipment installation. Skids Simplify Construction Biuro Projektow "Nafta-Gaz” Sp. z o.o. (NAFTA-GAZ) provides comprehensive design services for the oil and gas industry. The Jaslo, Poland-based company acquired specialized experience and technical knowledge through 36 years of operation. NAFTA-GAZ was established as a design department of oil mining, but became part of the mining projects office. Privatized in 1996, NAFTA-GAZ has advanced complex engineering designs for oil and gas field development, transmission and distribution systems, and facilities and installations. For this USD 12.5 million project, NAFTA-GAZ devised a modular plant for treating gas extracted from underground hydrocarbon deposits. "Building 3D models and producing deliverables like isometric drawings has always been important to us." — Boguslaw Niemczyk Engineer, "Nafta-Gaz" The reusable skids can be quickly and easily transported from site to site, simplifying installation and reducing construction costs. The project team used OpenPlant, AutoPIPE®, and Navigator to design, coordinate, and review the 3D models and generate deliverables for the plant modules. Using Bentley technology improved overall project delivery time by 60 percent, compared to projects using standard CAD and 2D technology. of transport. The whole plant was to be assembled on a location at a gas field, then disassembled, transported, and reassembled at a different location. Each plant system would be self-contained in an individual module (skid). In an emergency, a compromised skid would be replaceable. The module configuration had to be adaptable so that changes could be made based on the specific physiochemical properties of the hydrocarbon deposits at individual gas fields. Designing the plant using traditional CAD and 2D technology would be too cumbersome, potentially preventing the project team from exploring multiple options for module design and configuration. Experience also showed that producing deliverables would take too much time. To comply with industry standards, NAFTA-GAZ opted to develop a 3D design that would produce reliable final documentation. As a long-time user of Bentley applications, NAFTA-GAZ relied upon Bentleys intelligent plant design software to generate a high-quality, flexible design in less time. Modeling Site-specific Conditions NAFTA-GAZ prepared 3D models for each of the plant modules using Bentley's OpenPlant software for interoperable 2D and 3D plant design. Bentley's software enabled the team members to build 3D models very quickly with the addition of necessary catalog elements provided by Bentley Partner Centrum Systemow Softdesk (CS Softdesk), Lodz, Poland. Moreover, interoperability with other software accelerated the design and review cycles. Flexibility to Reconfigure The primary design requirements for the modular treatment plant were a flexible configuration and ease The project team subsequently exported piping system designs from OpenPlant to AutoPIPE for pipe stress and loading analysis based on the specific conditions of each site where the treatment plant was to be installed.

"Building 3D models and producing deliverables like isometric drawings have always been important to us. With OpenPlant Modeler and OpenPlant Isometrics Manager, the process has exceeded our current expectations. We like the intelligent isometrics documentation that allow us to read element data directly from the isometric drawing file, which is a milestone in comparison to former flat isogen files." - Boguslaw Niemczyk Engineer, Biuro Projektow "Nafta-Gaz" Find out about Bentley at: www.bentley.com Contact Bentley 1-800-BENTLEY (1-800-236-8539) Outside the US +1 610-458-5000 Global Office...
