Multitex Solutions of Fule Gas Conditioning Skid

All the above issues require an exceptional, deep understanding of basic concepts with continuous enhancement of the processes to provide reliable solutions for the OEMs of Turbine/ Compressors, Pipeline Companies, EPC, and Consultants. Multitex offered solutions to the above challenges have been proving it repeatedly for the last 35 years. Our services include end-to-end solutions from wells to power plants, including site and classroom training for clients and trained professionals to support site installation, commissioning, start-up, and Performance Guarantee test runs for both onshore and offshore experience.

Multitex applied solutions for the OEMs equipment protection for fuel gas conditioning includes treatment of fuels like Natural Gas, Naptha, and other fuels. It is essential to meet the stringent criterion for Gas Turbines and Gas Compressors’ performance and cater to pipeline specifications and custody transfer agreements and requirements for the pipeline owners/operators.

As part of the solution, Multitex has added the latest automation and safety concepts in their packages meeting all necessary safety study requirements, thereby ensuring reliable and safe operation to the end-user and operator. All our packages are studied for operational safety and flexibility, giving that extra edge to the customer.

Many components used as part of our solution include well-known and proven components having the best MTTR and MTBF rates, reducing the probability of failure for a wide operating range.

Manufacturing Capabilities

Our ASME and ISO certified manufacturing facilities having leading approvals meet all the metallurgical requirements (Nace-HIC, Stainless Steel, alloy materials, special coatings). They also provide the entire range of electrical, instrumentation, hook-ups, and zero-leak testing requirements and structure verification as per Marine class for topsides primary and secondary fuel gas conditioning skid with stringent accelerations applied to structure design.
Multitex has demonstrated its capability in the past by providing complete integrated packages and met many OEMs' specifications like GE, Siemens, Mitusbishi (MHPS), Alstom, Ansaldo, Solar, BHEL, Hitachi, and Nuovo Pignone. They have also met the major IOC's specifications like Shell DEP's, MESC codes, Aramco Standards, EIL, ONGC design codes, and standards, etc.

Service Capabilities

Multitex support and services extend after supplies, and Factory Acceptance test to logistics management, Installation, Hook-Ups, Start-Up, Cold / Hot Commissioning, and Performance Guarantee Test Run till successful hand-over until the warranty period.
We further support with necessary commissioning, operational capital & insurance inventory spares management.
Some of the projects we have executed so far were done under stringent delivery due to the projects' brownfield nature, which involves special studies during the construction and installation phase for timely and reliable execution. The studies include building a proper installation procedure and selecting the right type of component to optimize on given space and ease the installation effort.

Related Projects worthy of mention

Worth mentioning few projects over the last 25 years reliably with repetitive business from customers are:

1. In total have more than 150 references for the Fuel Gas Treatment packages applied on more than 100 Gas turbines/ Compressors from OEM’s.

2. Between 2009-2011, Multitex supplied Natural Fule Gas Conditioning Skid Systems for 16 GE Frame 9 FA and 2 V 94.3 Siemens machines. One of the highest numbers of Modular Skids supplied to the client, provided an automation system to run plants even in Open Cycle and synchronize the machines within stipulated time from GE Atlanta team to achieve steady-state for the heating efficiency cycle.

3. Successfully supported Asian Bank Funded Project in Bangladesh to develop their main cross-country pipeline of size 36” for a capacity of 650 MMSCFD by supplying critical RMS station. The project was of national importance to Bangladesh for their energy security and Titas Gas field monetization. Multitex packages were installed at different locations on the Cross-Country pipeline - starting from Chittagong through Feni to Sidhirganj and supplied the conditioned and metered natural gas to power plants and many other consumers.

4. IFFCO & Annola Fertilizer Plant got one of the first GE USA Frame 3 machines in 1997. After almost 22 years, MHI Japan added and upgraded the plant. Both OEMs preferred and used Multitex designed fuel gas treatment skids, another Milestone for Multitex, and proof of continuous support and partnership to the OEM and end-user with a reliable solution.
