CASE STUDY Guascor Gas Engines for Al Amal Petroleum Co. in Egypt ® Dresser-Rand Guascor® Engines and Gen-sets The Opportunity Al Amal Petroleum Co. onshore production facility is located at Ras El-Deb gas field in the Egyptian Red Sea. This exploration and production (E&P) site is located 350 km (217 miles) southeast of Cairo and 100 km (62 miles) north of Hurghada. It serves as a central pumping station (CPS) that is connected with a 16-inch (406 mm) pipeline with Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation (EGPC) gas processing plant and the concession areas at southwest Gebel El-Zeit. This...

The Dresser-Rand business allowed for two identical 40-foot containerized Guascor® SFGLD480 LCR generators, each rated at 780 kWe to generate electricity in harsh environmental conditions of approximately 48 degrees C (118 degrees Fahrenheit). Emissions are kept at bay ([NOx] = 140 ppm and [CO] = 50 ppm, respectively) using selective catalytic reduction technology that is allocated to each of the generator overheads. This reduces emissions by 70%. In parallel, it provides an advantageous return on investment by replacing diesel with natural gas fuel. Benefits • Replaced diesel generators...

CASE STUDY Guascor® Gen-Set Produces Usable Power, Lowers Emissions Dresser-Rand Guascor Engines and Gen-sets ® Guascor® Engines and Gen-sets The Opportunity The Silah-1 Rig is nestled in the Al-Quattara Depression, located in the Western Egyptian Desert in the Matruh Governorate (one of the 27 governorates comprising the Egyptian nation). With the number of oilfields declining in the region, almost all of the existing wells now require hydraulic fracture stimulation in order to sustain a level of economical hydrocarbon production. Petrosilah Oil Exploration and Production Company is a...

The Solution One of the solutions to minimize the flaring of gas is to make it affordable for gas power production. The Dresser-Rand business, part of Siemens Power and Gas Division, proposed installing its proprietary Guascor® SFGLD 240 internal combustion low compression ratio (LCR) gen-set through its Egyptian partner, Proserve. The system generates a power output of 250 kWh, using 60,000 SCFD of a pure methane gas, scrubbed upstream using a mechanical separation unit. The gen-set employs state-of-the-art technology to cope with the low flare gas quality to produce usable power, turning...

CASE STUDY Gas Engines Increase Gas Production in Egypt’s Raml Field Guascor® Engines and Gen-sets The Opportunity There are more than 110 oil-producing wells in the western desert fields of Egypt, 30 of which are located in the Raml oil and gas fields. Historically, these western desert fields suffered poor yields because of the high gas-to-oil ratio. Agiba Petroleum Company, an oil and gas production company, called on Dresser-Rand to help increase production at one of its gas plants in the Raml field. The Solution Dresser-Rand’s project development team created a solution that delivered...

Benefits • Substantial savings in fuel costs (almost 7MM€/year)* • Increased power generation reliability and availability • Increased oil production • Reduced maintenance and repair costs • Reduced emissions by 50 percent and reduced flared gas by 60 percent The Business The Dresser-Rand business, part of Siemens Power and Gas (PG), offers some of the most efficient and environmentallyfriendly technology platforms, products and services in distributed power generation for oil and gas, industrial, institutional, and commercial clients and rural electrification programs. Solutions include:...

CASE STUDY Containerized Gen-sets on flare gas recovery in Venezuela Guascor® Engines and Gen-sets The Opportunity The main economic resource in the Anzoategui area of Venezuela is oil and gas production. Associated gas from crude oil provides abundant energy. Large quantities of oil are extracted and the associated petroleum gas (APG) can be used as a fuel for power generation, instead of being flared into the atmosphere (as it previously was). The solution Dresser‑Rand is providing gen‑sets, voltage transformers, MT transfer switches,PLC controls, installation materials and equipment,...

Benefits • Better use of natural resources • Lowers transmission and distribution energy losses • Lowers initial cost because the modular plants can be re‑sized as demand grows • Provides a reliable, long‑lasting power supply • Provides greater control and improved energy cost forecast • Improves stability of the electrical network voltage • Increases contingency reserves The Business The Dresser‑Rand business, part of Siemens Power and Gas (PG), offers some of the most efficient and environmentally‑ friendly technology platforms, products and services in distributed power generation for...
