Resources & Sustainable IndustryTrans Anatolian Natural Gas Pipeline Project (TANAP)A new pipeline system connects the Caspian Sea gas fields in Azerbaijan and later on, possibly also gas fields in Turkmenistan with Europe.
Resources & Sustainable IndustryTrans-Asia Gas PipelineThe pipeline system will transport gas produced by the Malay fields in Turkmenistan and the fields located on the right bank of Amu Darya.
Resources & Sustainable IndustryAbu Dhabi Crude Oil PipelineThe pipeline ties into the existing ADCOP system at MP21 and runs from Habshan (main pumping station) via Sweihan (intermediate pumping station) to the terminal in Fujairah. It serves as additional export route for crude oil bypassing the Strait of Hormuz.
Resources & Sustainable IndustryPuchkirchen Gas Storage PlantIn a first stage, the existing Puchkirchen gas storage plant with its satellite station was assessed for a potential increase in capacity. This assessment served as a basis to define the steps needed to increase the capacity of the station.
Resources & Sustainable IndustryEPCM – Monomer Recovery PP5, SchwechatThe petrochemical complex in Schwechat is one of the main development centres of the globally active BOREALIS group. The aim of the project was to increase the production yield of the polypropylene plant by recovering propylene from the continuous flare gas flow of the reactor.
Resources & Sustainable IndustryNaphtha Splitter in Petrobrazi RefineryOMV Petrom operates the Petrobrazi Refinery in Ploiesti, Romania, with a total capacity of 4.5 million tons per year. The operator had to optimise the naphtha line in order to meet the gasoline requirements of EN228.
Resources & Sustainable IndustryKremenchug Refinery - Energy Efficiency ImprovementThe objective of the project was to identify viable energy efficiency improvements for an existing refinery with a design capacity of 18.6 mt/a (crude oil). Furthermore three business cases were investigated for the unique configuration of the main process trains in this refinery.
Resources & Sustainable IndustryWierzchowice Underground Gas StorageWith a storage capacity of 1.2 bcm this is the biggest underground gas storage facility in Poland built on a depleted gas field. It comprises a 37 MWel combined-cycle power plant which feeds two 10 MW turbo compressors in summer and supports the local grid in winter.
