Natural gas compression system
In oil and gas extraction or gas storage facilities, managing gas compression effectively is crucial. This involves ensuring consistent pressure levels and high operational availability while maintaining energy efficiency. Challenges often include dealing with various types of gases and complying with strict industry regulations.
Optimize gas compression with energy-efficient operation.
The GEA gas screw compressor is a robust solution for compressing natural and industrial gases, designed for prolonged operational life and high reliability. This compressor operates by drawing gas into rotor spaces, compressing it through the rotor profile until discharge. Notably, the compressors adhere to API 619 standards and are adaptable to other international guidelines like ATEX and ISO10440. Featuring a design pressure up to 52 bar and speed range up to 6,000 rpm, they cater to numerous industries, including power plants and chemical processing. The compressors are suitable for gases such as natural gas, biogas, and synthetic gas, with a swept volume ranging from 231 to 13,846 m³/h. GEA’s gas screw compressors ensure low maintenance needs due to their balanced forces, making them ideal for continuous, demanding applications.
