P & S CASE STUDY
A TURNKEY SOLUTION FOR NATURAL GAS TREATMENT
Servomex has supplied Netherlands energy network operator Gasunie with a gas analysis solution for its new nitrogen facility, which will be used to treat high-calorific natural gas imported from abroad.
Much of the Netherlands’ natural gas supply comes from the Groningen Gas Field, and important steps have been taken in recent years to accelerate the reduction of gas extraction from this field.
Gasunie’ s new installation takes nitrogen from the air and blends it with imported high-calorific gas, replacing the need to extract gas from the Groningen field.
Gasunie and Servomex have worked in partnership for more than 15 years, and the energy network operator has been particularly satisfied with the product quality and service support provided by Servomex.
The nitrogen factory is scheduled to begin operation in April 2022, and will use 23 of Servomex’ s SERVOPRO MultiExact 4100 analyzers to deliver accurate, multi-component gas analysis at 37 required measuring points throughout the process.
The MultiExact 4100 measures up to four gas streams simultaneously, ensuring a much more costeffective solution than using individual analyzers for each point.
The analyzers are configured to measure a combination of low oxygen, high oxygen, and carbon dioxide, using Paramagnetic and Infrared sensing technologies. For the most critical measurement points, analyzers with a single sensor were installed.
Servomex’ s turnkey gas analysis system includes 19-inch rack cabinets with pressure reduction and valves. Everything is operated through the Profibus protocol, using a one-line digital signal, simplifying the system and ensuring greater accuracy.
Servomex will also provide on-site commissioning for the entire system, and a service support plan.
