Located in a remote desert country of northwest Oman, the facility compresses natural gas from 40psig to 650psig.   Three API-618 gas engine reciprocating compressors were selected for this service.   Additional process systems included in the EPC contract were 2.2MW of power generation, fuel gas conditioning,  instrument air compression and a 60 MMSCFD emergency flare system.

In addition to gas compression, the turnkey project involved considerable brownfield modifications and civil work.  And also handling 120,000 BLPD of associated produced water.  Two 5,000 bbl tanks and three 375kW centrifugal API-610 pumps were the centrepieces of this system.

To comply with Omani in-country value (ICV) regulations, local companies were used where practical for sourcing of components as well as for all site construction works.
