Siemens Energy has been selected to provide centrifugal compressor systems for Saudi Aramco’s Hawiyah Unayzah Gas Reservoir Storage (HUGRS) project, the company said in a recent statement.
The plant includes a gas injection facility with a capacity of 1,500 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD) and a withdrawal facility capable of processing up to 2,000 MMSCFD of 56,633,693 cum of gas.
Siemens Energy received the order from Samsung Engineering, who was awarded the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contract for the entire project earlier this year.
The project, located 260 km east of Riyadh, includes a plant that will take surplus pipelines gas in the winter months and inject it into an existing depleted field. It can be withdrawn when needed to meet high summer demand.
Siemens Energy will supply the required 20 compression trains. Ten trains will be built for the injection portion of the plant, and another 10 trains will be used for the withdrawal portion of the plant.
“We have a track record of fastest delivery times and a dedicated local workforce to produce these units in our Dammam facility in line with our commitment to Aramco’s In-Kingdom Total Value Add program,” said Arja Talakar, Senior Vice President, Industrial Applications Products for Siemens Energy.
This order builds on Siemens’ recent successful supply of compressor trains for other Saudi Aramco projects, including the new Fadhill gas plant and the Hawiyah gas expansion project.
