    KADANWARI PLANT EMISSION REDUCTION PROJECT BASIC ENGINEERING

    1.1 Executive summary

    The process scheme selected for the basic engineering is the result of several rounds of evaluation. First the Kadanwari plant was benchmarked and all possible options and technologies were evaluated in a general Emission Reduction Study. From this evaluation, OMV withheld 3 cases, each comprising of several technologies and improvements, to be developed in detail in the FEED study. Based on the more detailed FEED study, OMV has now selected one scenario comprising of two technologies to be further developed in the present Basic Engineering. During the Basic Engineering, a HAZOP review of the subject project was held. The HAZOP report is included and the PIDs updated. As introduced in the previous extensive emissions study and FEED study, the selected scenario, which is the result of an in depth review by OMV and UOP, is very promising in terms of hydrocarbon recovery and related emissions.

    CO2 - introduction

    CO2 emissions are inherent to the objective of the Kadanwari facility, treating the Kadanwari and Miano gas to pipeline specification. Reducing the CO2 content from 10.5% to 3% in a 220MMscfd production generates an inherent CO2 stream of 16.5MMscfd of pure CO2, corresponding to approx 0.35MMt/y of CO2. In addition CO2 is generated in the combustion of 4-5Mmscfd of fuel gas (equivalent to 0.09MMt/y CO2). Finally, the separation of natural gas and CO2 is not a perfect separation and a small fraction of hydrocarbons is lost. These hydrocarbons contribute to the emissions when incinerated (0.09MMt/y CO2) or when vented. Venting hydrocarbons is much less favourable than incinerating the hydrocarbons in terms of greenhouse effect. The most promising option to reduce CO2 emissions is to tackle the 0.09MMt/y of emissions related to the hydrocarbon losses in the vent gas (see next section). These CO2 emissions represent 0.09MMt/y = 17% of the total CO2 emissions. For the remaining 83% of the emissions (=inherent CO2 emission), venting is the more economical option, unless when a specific incentive exists. Producing a commercial CO2 product (food grade, urea production or EOR) or Reinjecting the CO2 in a depleted well are technical options that were not withheld for the Kadanwari facility.

    Hydrocarbons - introduction Hydrocarbon losses are linked to

    Membrane operation: the separation of methane and carbon dioxide does not have an infinite selectivity. Some hydrocarbons permeate with the CO2 in the vent gas;

    The low pressure gas released when depressurising the MemGuard unit (combined temperature and pressure swing unit) consists of 80% methane and is sent to the vent.

    UOP has reviewed the current operation in great detail to reduce the hydrocarbon emissions, resulting in an increased hydrocarbon recovery (= increased revenue). The most promising options have resulted in the definition of scenario for the basic engineering:

    KADANWARI PLANT EMISSION REDUCTION PROJECT BASIC ENGINEERING

    Conclusion for CO2 emissions and Hydrocarbons The CO2 emissions are reduced and at the same time the Hydrocarbon recovery is increased (Revenue):

    Compared to the existing situation (= reference case), the increase in hydrocarbon recovery (on a fuel excl. basis) is 2.17%.

    The hydrocarbons in the vent stream, which are incinerated, currently represent 0.09MMt/y of CO2 emissions (=17% of the total CO2 emissions). Recovering these hydrocarbons reduces the CO2 emissions by -15%.

    The hydrocarbons currently lost in the vent gas (= reference case) represent an increased revenue of approximately 5.2 MM$/year (based on the OMV data of 3.0$/kscf & 220MMscfd feed gas).

    H2S emissions - introduction

    UOP has reviewed the wide range of sulphur treating technologies available on the market to treat the H2S in the vent gas to meet the NEQS levels (10mg/Nm3 H2S = 6.6vppm; 1700mg/Nm3 SOx = 595vppm in terms of SO2). The vent gas is characterized by a diluted (

    1.2 Scope

    OMV Pakistan previously awarded a FEED study to UOP to develop possible options to reduce the Kadanwari Plant Emission. From the FEED study the following options were selected by OMV & JV partners for further development in basic engineering (refer to Basic engineering Scope 3003-12-00-10-SW-002-00 by OMV dd. November 19th 2006):

    Installation of MemGuard after coolers to minimize the T-spike at the membrane inlet Installation of a PSA unit on Vent Stream to recover 90% of the HCs from the Vent Gas As the PSA tail gas enriched in H2S will need to be incinerated, the compatibility of the

    existing incinerator is to be evaluated

    Refer to the Basic engineering Scope 3003-12-00-10-SW-002-00 by OMV, Nov. 19th 2006 The basic engineering has as aim to

    1. confirm the design basis 2. define a scope of supply and process & integration compatibility of supplied items with the

    existing systems. Page 4 of 9:

    UOP has suggested to optimize the PSA / PSA feed compressor. However, OMV has provided input that the feed conditions to the PSA feed compressor cannot be changed, see secton 4.0 (Vent Gas Pressure).

    With exception of the review with respect to operability of the PSA unit, the PSA feed compressor, the after coolers and KO vessels, the review with respect to operability of the system is not in UOP scope.

    UOP will propose the minimum requirements for the MemGuard aftercooler operation & controls. However, any detail with respect to the cooling water system is not in UOP scope.

    Page 4 of 9, deliverables:

    PFD and PID refer to a typical PFD / PID for the MemGuard after coolers and detailed PID of the PSA unit (as already included in the PSA technical proposal and reviewed in the preliminary HAZOP)

    Integrated model will not take transient temperature changes into account Tie-in details are limited to battery limit connections of PSA, feed compressor, feed

    compressor after cooler and MemGuard after coolers Operating control philosophy is limited to the interface between the PSA and PSA feed

    compressor and the OMV system (including required bypass, how to SD) and the control loops on the MemGuard after coolers. ESD is out of UOP scope. Specifically for the bump cooler, UOP will provide details on

    o Requirement of bypass o Control loops o Depressurization rates o Utilities

    Plant hydraulics relates to o Battery limit pipe sizing o Requirements on low Dp piping outside UOP B.L.

    Materials of construction are already detailed in PSA technical proposal Equipment specs relate to process datasheets for exchangers / compressor / compressor

    2.0 Introduction

    2.1 Potential

    The installation of a PSA unit will result in an increased recovery of hydrocarbons o Reference case: 97.47% (HC recovery on fuel-excl basis) o With PSA unit: 99.64%

    90% of the hydrocarbons currently lost in the depressurizing gas can be recovered in the PSA unit (refer to the previous study). Based on the OMV supplied number of 3.0$/1000scf, the increased HC recovery equivalent to approximately 90% x 0.62MMscfd x 3.0 $/kscf =0.6 MM$/year. Recovering 90% of the hydrocarbons from the current vent stream would result in a saving of 0.08MMt/y of CO2 emissions (=15% of the total CO2 emissions) and an additional revenue of approximately 90% of (20% hydrocarbons x 24MMscfd) x 3.0 $/kscf = 4.6 MM$/year The total potential is

    for 220MMscfd throughput: 0.08MMt/y of CO2 emission reduction (=15% of the total CO2 emissions) 5.2 MM$/year additional revenue ((99.64-97.47%)*220MMscfd*3.0$/kscf)

    for 240MMscfd throughput: 0.09MMt/y of CO2 emission reduction (=15% of the total CO2 emissions) 5.8 MM$/year additional revenue ((99.64-97.47%)*240MMscfd*3.0$/kscf)

    2.2 Reference case Simulations are for 240MMscfd raw feed gas flow in 60/40 ratio (144MMscfd Miano gas and 96MMscfd Kadanwari gas) The performance of the PSA + MemGuard after coolers is compared with the reference case as presented below. The reference case includes an increased feed flow of 240MMscfd the impact of the depressurization losses is included by sending a time-averaged MemGuard

    product slip stream of 0.62MMscfd into the vent gas the impact of the non-stationary effects due to the heat bump is not presented in the material

    3.0 MemGuard After Cooling using Trim Coolers

    The current operation shows a temporary increase in vessel outlet temperature when a freshly regenerated MemGuard vessel is brought online (adsorption/transition step). To buffer the increase in membrane feed temperature, a transition step is designed in the MemGuard unit, during which, both adsorption vessels of the same train are online. The readings are based on spot monitoring of data on 19th Oct 05.

    Still, the temperature bump propagates through the system:

    The temperature bump reaches the 1st stage membranes, propagates through the primary membrane residue (sales gas) and exchanges heat with the raw feed gas in the feed coolers (E-0520/0525), after which, it again reaches the MemGuard inlet. This recycle causes the actual temperature bump to be extended in time

    The temperature bump reaches the 1st stage membranes, increasing the permeation rate. As a consequence, the permeate compressors have to handle more permeate.

    The current operation shows a temperature increase at the outlet of the fresh MemGuard bed (prior to mixing with the outlet of the 2nd bed) during approximately 30minutes with a peak of +45F. In the transition step, this peak is reduced by half before entering the membranes. The temperature bump propagates in the sales gas and is consequently recycled upstream of the MemGuard through cross exchange in the feed coolers. This further extends the temperature bump. The raw gas (upstream of the MemGuard), after cross exchange in the feed coolers, has a temperature increase of 90 minutes with a peak of +12F.

    The permeate compressor flow (combined from Train 1 and Train 2) varies from 43 to 48MMscfd. 157minutes (half of 315minutes) after the first train, the next MemGuard train generates a temperature bump.

    Due to the increased permeation on the primary membranes, the 2nd stage residue flow (recorded at recycle skid B outlet) increases from 20 to 25MMscfd with a corresponding temperature increase of 4F (from 58 to 62F). The effect starts simultaneously in 1st and 2nd stage membranes but it lasts for 30 min. in 1st stage and for 2 hours in 2nd stage membrane system.

    The UOP MemGuard modeling shows that the temperature spike is not a result of residual heat (incomplete cooling) in the regenerated MemGuard vessel, but is inherent to the adsorption process itself. It is important however to minimize the temperature bump and eliminate the propagation of this effect which affects the operation during a period of almost 1.5 hours.

    UOP suggests to install heat exchangers (MemGuard After Coolers) upstream of the existing primary membrane skids, as was already proposed in the 300MMscfd expansion project (E-0531 and E-0536). If a compact (Heatric) type exchanger is used (as already used in the pre-treatment skids), the installation between the particle filters and the membrane skid is fairly easy. Initially gas-gas cross exchangers were suggested using the sales gas (200MMscfd) as a cooling medium. However, to avoid the possible nuisance of a varying temperature at the inlet of the sales gas compressors, OMV has selected water trim coolers instead. 1. Simulation The temperature spike in the MemGuard unit is a transient process that is not reflected in the overall material balance. 2. Process Benefits (in terms of emission and/or hydrocarbon recovery)

    Eliminates the fluctuations on the permeate compressor (5MMscfd). These fluctuations translate into a temporary increased power demand, increased difficulty in controlling the plant and limit the possibilities to use the spare compression capacity in other improvement schemes. Without taking into account other improvement schemes, the net saving is a power saving with a fuel decrease of 0.3MMscfd * 30min/157min = 0.06MMscfd.

    No significant impact on the overall hydrocarbon recovery, as long as the recycle compressor has sufficient capacity to handle the variations in permeate flow. In case of shortage in compression power (e.g. With increasing feed gas flow rates to 240MMscfd or after implementation the PSA unit), the impact on the hydrocarbon recovery becomes very important, as excess permeate gas will have to be flared.

    Eliminates the fluctuations on the membranes. This facilitates a more accurate adjustment to 3.0% CO2 in the sales gas.

    As the cooling tower has been upgraded taken in view of 3rd train addition, a lot of room is available to bear more heat load. At current operation, the supply temperature is around 85 0F and return temperature is 97 0F.

    4.0 Vent Gas pressure

    In order to recover the vent gas in a PSA unit, the low pressure vent gas (20psia) needs to be recompressed. In order to reduce the PSA feed compressor duty, UOP has suggested to increase the membrane permeate pressure. It is expected that the impact on the membrane operation and MemGuard regeneration would be minor. a. Increase of Membrane permeate pressure to 80psia

    OMV informed that they were not able to generate and collect data from the site with respect to increased 2nd stage permeate pressure as discussed in the meeting with OMV. OMV will go-ahead with the option of base case having 50 psia as 2nd stage permeate pressure and 17 psia vent pressure which requires approximately 4 MW PSA feed compressor as this option will have least affect on the existing plant operation instead of selecting a lower 2 MW compressor but compromising to a certain extent on the plant operating conditions. OMV lists several reasons including the Plant operations team is not fully convinced to run the plant now or even later under these conditions as it is believed this may cause:

    Overloading of the 2nd stage permeate compressor to a certain extent MemGuard regeneration loop can be affected Less degree of freedom to operate the 2nd stage membrane skids due to increase in

    permeate pressure Consequently overall membrane performance could be affected

    As the flow rate of the depressurization gas is not measured at site, OMV agreed to use the number of 3.88Mmscfd average depressurization flow rate previously calculated in the study The permeate and vent analysis shows three times 78% and one time 80% CO2. No errors in analysis were suspected by OMV and as such it is proposed to use the average value of both measurements.

    6.0 PSA unit

    A PSA unit can recover >90% of the methane in the vent gas. The PSA unit operates at a higher pressure and therefore requires feed compression (to 120psia). The methane recovery in a PSA unit can be traded off:

    lower methane recovery, less recycle compression, with lower CO2 purity in vent gas higher methane recovery, higher recycle compression, higher CO2 purity in vent gas

    The PSA feed compressor can be a centrifugal compressor, a piston compressor or even a screw compressor. UOP has designed over 800 PSA units including 25 PSA systems with over 40 compressors.

    Selection of the recycle point of the recovered hydrocarbons:

    In principle, the hydrocarbons recovered in the PSA product gas (at medium pressure) can be recycled to an inter-stage pressure of the permeate compressor to reduce the power consumption of the permeate compressor. However, OMV has indicated that the PSA product gas should be mixed with the membrane permeate gas at the low pressure suction of the permeate compressor. This avoids operational changes and variations on the permeate compressor. In this case the operating pressure of the PSA unit is selected independently for optimum PSA performance and minimum PSA feed gas compressor power consumption. The optimum PSA feed pressure is 120psia which corresponds to a compressor discharge pressure of 135psia.

    Requirement of a tail gas drum:

    The typical PSA PFD includes a tail gas drum (= vent gas drum) to buffer the low pressure tail gas when it is sent to burners. The requirement of a tail gas drum is discussed in section 8. The current PSA proposal is exclusive of a tail gas drum.

    Typical peripheral flow scheme and controls:

    Figure: PSA unit

    General note: The simulations are based on the base case as described in the scope of work. For 200MMscfd this corresponds to a permeate flow rate of 43MMscfd. When increasing the feed to 240Mmscfd this further increases to 51Mmscfd. As this approaches the design capacity of the permeate compressor of 60MMscfd, one could judge that further improvements are not possible. However, even though some of the presented options indicate compression flows exceeding 60Mmscfd, one should keep in mind that: the actual membrane performance is better than reflected in the material balance (which

    assumes end-of-life performance). As such the compression flows in the simulations are overestimated.

    the Kadanwari plant & PSA unit might not be operated at its design throughput of 240MMscfd

    the base case of the PSA unit includes the depressurization gas which occurs during only 25 minutes per 157minute cycle.

    At all times, the PSA operation can be adjusted such that the combined compression feed stream is matched exactly with the actual compression capacity. The combined recycle compression stream consists of: first stage permeate gas recycle of PSA product gas.

    6.1 Inlet temperature of the PSA unit

    The recycled regeneration gas has to be cooled prior to entering the regeneration gas compressor. According to the hysys model: Currently the spent regeneration gas (318F) is cross-exchanged (cooled to 216F 2.5MMBTU/hr)) in E-1215, air-cooled in E-1210 (124F 2.1MMBTU/hr) and again cross-exchanged in E-1215 (heated to 231F). This scheme is no longer feasible as the PSA feed compressor cannot be fed at 231F. The cross-exchange has to be eliminated at additional cost of air cooling E-1215 (duty 4.7MMBTU/hr) to achieve a final temperature

    OMV has selected to mix this gas with the Vent Gas and send it to the PSA unit. If the depressurization logic is switched to flow-control (recommended), the depressurization gas introduced +3.88MMscfd additional PSA feed flow. The depressurization step takes 25 minutes every 157 minutes. The depressurization gas will be mixed with the 2nd stage permeate gas and buffered at 50psia. The PSA will see a flow rate changing from approximately 33.7MMscfd (no depressurization) to 37.2Mmscfd (depressurization). The molecular weight varies from 38.9 (no depressurization) to 36.8kg/kmol (depressurization).

    Note: One could argue that in principle it should be possible to distinguish two parts in the

    depressurization step: Part 1: The MemGuard depressurization gas can be sent directly (through a PCV

    set at 150psia) to the PSA feed as long as the MemGuard pressure is >200psia. This represents a quantity 88% of the complete depressurization gas with an average flow rate of 3.88MMscfd.

    Part 2: As soon as the pressure drops below 200psia, the gas is sent to the PSA feed gas compressor.

    The advantage of this scheme is limited to power saving on the PSA feed compressor. As the sizing of the compressor is not affected and to avoid overcomplicating the process scheme, it is preferred not to choose this scheme and to send the entire depressurization gas (1270-50psia) to the PSA feed compressor.

    In presence of a PSA unit, UOP recommends to send the depressurization gas to the suction of the PSA feed compressor.

    The repressurising/depressurising of the MemGuard vessels are transient processes that are difficult to reflect in the overall material balance. In reality, there is a slight fluctuation on the feed gas (at constant sales gas) or in the sales gas (at constant feed gas flow rates) inherent to the repressurising step of the MemGuard vessels. The depressurizing stream is complementary to the repressurising step. The material balance shows a slip stream of each MemGuard unit that is directed to the PSA unit. Depending on the final compressor selection, a buffer vessel on the compressor suction might be recommended to smoothen the feed flow to the PSA feed compressor. A 100m3 buffer vessel has estimated dimensions & cost of:

    Vessel volume of buffer 100m3 Design pressure (psia) 70psia OD / TT / Total Height (mm) 3200 / 11500 / 15000 Weight (kg) 17000 Estimated CAPEX 60k (buffer vessel)

    PSA unit at constant recovery or PSA unit at constant product flow

    Operating the PSA unit at a constant recovery (90% methane recovery) results in an increased PSA product flow during the depressurization step (as the PSA feed flow increases from 33.7MMscfd to 37.2Mmscfd. The PSA product increases 12.4MMScfd (outside the depressurization step) to 15.5MMscfd. Although recycling as much of the methane recovered from the vent gas is favourable, it might exceed the available permeate compression capacity (~60MMscfd) and cause minor variations of the operating conditions. The material balance shows the combined permeate compressor feed to increase to 67.8MMscfd. If the permeate compressor capacity is exceeded, a slip stream of the vent gas will be bypassed around the PSA system using a FCV.

    The PSA vent gas (also called tail gas or off gas), is to be routed to the incinerator to avoid H2S emissions. Any PSA vent gas will have some fluctuations which our inherent to the PSA process (batch process). Assuming a constant flow rate (assuming ideal downstream flow control), the PSA vent gas will have some fluctuations in composition and as a consequence LHV and Wobbe (BTU/scf).

    In addition to the compositional variations discussed above, two other variations should be addressed. The PSA vent gas with properly tuned downstream FCV will fluctuate (assuming a constant feed stream) with typical 1-3%. For design purposes a fluctuation of 5% is assumed Because of the addition of the MemGuard depressurisation gas (30minutes every 157 minutes), the feed flow to the PSA unit changes. This again induces a compositional variation as well as a flow variation. This is represented qualitatively in the chart below.

    Downstream processes that cannot handle the presented variations require a so called mixing drum on the vent gas downstream the PSA unit. This is very common when for example the PSA vent gas is used as a fuel gas in steam reformers. An example can be seen in the PSA picture in section 6.0 above.

    Node 4: Utilities

    Action item 1 UOP to confirm O2 and CO2 content as well as dew-point of N2 used for purging 4% O2 content is rather high to reach below explosion limit values. Long purging may be required before levels below 5% O2 are reached. The plant can produce N2 of higher purity in O2 content at lower capacity; this would be preferable if it can be accommodated during PSA start-up if other unit demands allow for it. Dew point is rather high, water content may adsorb irreversibly onto PSA adsorbent and cause minor adsorbent deactivation. Dew-point of -40 C is recommended. It is confirmed by site that -40 C can be reached under optimum operating conditions.

    To be included in operations manual

    Action item 2 OMV operations to confirm availability of N2 Operations confirm during meeting of Feb 7th that the demand can be met.
