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 .
