Front end, value engineering, cost estimating, and detailed engineering for this greenfield 300 MMSCFD sour gas offshore processing facility

Deep Panuke Offshore Gas Processing Facility

Through a joint venture firm ACCENT Engineering Consultants, we provided front end engineering, value engineering, cost estimating, and detailed design engineering for the EnCana Greenfield 300 MMSCFD Deep Panuke sour gas offshore processing facility. The facility design included unit operations for gas, liquid hydrocarbon, and water separation, sweetening, dehydration, sales gas dewpoint conditioning, compression, and all utility support. Also included were flowline and pipeline flow assurance, platform structural design, package management, project management, and construction management.

The offshore platform was designed completely using the modularization philosophy with significant consideration regarding mechanical handling due to the offshore location. We took the project through to the point where we were ready to procure major packages when client ownership changed and the project was put on hold to study outstanding questions about the reservoir.

Since that time, many aspects of our design have been carried forward through a new design-build-operate-own lease-back contract arrangement. We continue to support the project team to evaluate development options, advance regulatory filings to project sanction, and provide project personnel as necessary.
