The Dresser-Rand business, as part of Siemens Power and Gas, secured a contract to supply two compressor trains to an onshore receiving facility in Ghana. The contract marks the first time the Dresser-Rand business has sold a DATUM® compressor driven by a Siemens gas turbine.
The client, ENI Ghana Exploration and Production Ltd. (ENI Ghana), is utilizing the units in the Offshore Cape Three Points (OCTP) project in Ghana. The first compressor unit is scheduled for delivery in September 2017, the second in October 2017 and ENI Ghana expects to have the plant fully operational in February 2018.
The two Dresser-Rand DATUM centrifugal compressors, model D10R8B, will each be driven by a Siemens SGT-400 gas turbine. The equipment will be installed in ENI’s onshore gas receiving facility (ORF) located in the western region of Ghana near the village of Sanzule. The ORF will receive the non-associated gas delivered from offshore for further compression and injection into the gas pipeline national network for delivery. The OCTP project is of strategic importance for Ghana in order to provide a long-term sustainable and clean source of power generation.
