Solutions

Maximizing efficiency is one of our core goals at

Atlas Copco Gas and Process – and that’s exactly

what our customized expanders do in an array

of applications in oil and gas, the industrial gases

industry, and energy recovery.

Expanding Innovation

We value customer interaction and foster continuous

innovation when developing our machines. For example,

Atlas Copco Gas and Process pioneered the successful

employment of dry gas seals in cryogenic applications.

Our expanders utilize variable inlet guide vanes (IGV),

which adjust to changing process conditions and boost

efficiency, precision, and performance.

Because top dependability is essential for all our

customers, our expanders can be equipped with

active magnetic bearings (AMB), which virtually

eliminate wear-and-tear.

Atlas Copco Quality “Off the Shelf”

While we are experts in tailoring solutions to our

customers’ needs, our offering also includes standardized

machines. Case in point: the ECOTS™ (Expander

Compressor off the Shelf) series of turboexpanders.

Used in gas processing applications, ECOTS™ combines

More Cool for Your Process: Industrial GasesAn industry 100 years in the making

needs efficient solutions for the future.

The industrial gases industry remains a key growth area around the

world. It is essential to nearly all industrial sectors – from steel to

semiconductors – where gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen,

and carbon dioxide drive a wide variety of processes.

Atlas Copco Gas and Process has advanced its industrial gases expertise for

decades and offers a variety of efficient machinery, including main air,

booster air, nitrogen, and oxygen compressors, as well as expansion turbines.

Air Separation

Our turbomachinery is used in air separation applications that support

a host of other industries, including the chemical / petrochemical sector,

the steel industry, electronics, Gas to Liquids (GTL) / Syngas / CO,

CO2 compression and microprocessor production.

Carbon Capture Storage

A new and promising technology, Carbon Capture Storage (CCS) reduces the

impact of carbon dioxide on our planet. Instead of being released into the

atmosphere, CO2 is captured directly at the source. It can then be transported

to a predetermined location, either underground or underwater, for safe storage.

Atlas Copco turbocompressors play an important role in the CCS process.

Ramis Gafurov, Director of Nitrogen, Oxygen, Argon, and Cooling for

Russian chemicals player Kazanorgsintez, has seen it all. In 30 years

on the job, he has traveled to 80 countries and worked with some of the

brightest minds in the industry.

An Ambitious Project

Gafurov is the mastermind behind an ambitious air-separation expansion

needed for Kazanorgsintez’ polyethylene production, which accounts for 38%

of this type of plastic produced in the entire country. Thanks to three Atlas

Copco Gas and Process machines, Gafurov was able to reach his ambitious

goal.

The Right Decision

During the air-separation process, an Atlas Copco

main air compressor / booster air compressor package

helps purify and compress atmospheric air. A two-stage

turboexpander is used to cool and liquefy the air, and

the H-series nitrogen compressor condenses nitrogen

and prepares it for transportation to end users.

“I look at this plant operating now, and I am satisfied

with having made the right decision on the equipment,”

says Gafurov.

Kazanorgsintez’s expansion increased the plant’s pro-

duction of low-pressure polyethylene to 510 000 tons/year

and high-pressure polyethylene to 220 000 tons/year. The

company also boosted the supply of oxygen and nitrogen

for on-site production processes.

Maximum Reliability

Atlas Copco Gas and Process was selected over

international competition because it could offer a

reliable, technically advanced compressor-expander

concept featuring best-in-class efficiency.

“Atlas Copco provides flexibility while always pursuing

the goal of satisfying its customers,” says Gafurov. “We

are pleased with the performance of all three machines.”

More Productivity Around the Clock: Oil and Gas

In an industry that spans oceans and continents, performance and reliability

are the name of the game. Atlas Copco Gas and Process offers customized and

standardized machinery that supports every link in the value chain, maximizing

performance without sacrificing dependability.

Upstream

The beginning of the petroleum process involves the exploration and

production of crude oil and natural gas. It covers all applications from

the well to the product-transportation system. Within this segment,

gas processing, gas treatment, and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG)

applications rely on Atlas Copco Gas and Process turbomachinery.

Midstream

Once crude oil or natural gas have been located and produced, they enter the

crucial midstream sector – pipeline transportation, storage, and processing.

From transportation to storage, we offer decades of experience and expertise

in Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), especially for various off-shore solutions.

Downstream

Perhaps the most complex market within the oil-and-gas industry,

“downstream” refers to the refining and marketing processes, as well as all

other subsequent measures of transforming and processing hydrocarbon

products further down the value chain. Atlas Copco Gas and Process machines

support downstream applications such as petrochemical, aromatics, organics,

as well as refinery and power-generation processes.

Atlas Copco Gas and Process equipment reliably

supports every process in the industry – upstream,

midstream, and downstream, on land and at sea.

As recently as 1998, Ras Laffan Industrial City held only one plant and

a minor port. Today, Qatar is the world-leading producer of LNG, and

Ras Laffan, situated 80 kilometers outside of Doha, is an LNG-production

hub for international energy players such as RasGas.

“It is a busy site – extremely busy – and probably one of the largest sites

in terms of machinery anywhere in the world,” says Dr. Basil Wakileh,

Machinery and Reliability Manager at the RasGas site at Ras Laffan.

Rapid Growth

At Ras Laffan, seven RasGas trains pump out approximately

37 million tons of LNG a year. Supporting production

at Ras Laffan are six Atlas Copco expander compressors,

churning away in the two newest trains in RasGas’

presence at Ras Laffan.

The Ras Laffan industrial site has experienced rapid

growth, and RasGas has played a lead role in this

development. Since 2008, the company has expanded

its production facilities from five to seven LNG trains,

boosting the site’s overall LNG production to 37 million

tons per year. The two new trains each produce 7.8 million

tons of LNG annually.

A Strong Partnership RasGas relies on two Atlas Copco expander compressors

to run full-time in each train. A third unit provides

redundancy capability.

The expander compressors are used in the gas treatment

plants and produce the refrigeration needed to remove

the natural gas liquids (NGLs) from the natural gas prior

to converting the remaining lean gas into LNG.

Reliable equipment is crucial to maintain a maximum

of productivity at the facility. Since their installation, the

six machines have been living up to that high standard,

and the partnership between RasGas and Atlas Copco

Gas and Process has proven to be a strong one.

“RasGas has a good relationship with Atlas Copco,”

Dr. Wakileh says. “We have many visits and talk frequently.

We also have good contacts for service.”

company produces advanced materials for the aerospace,

automotive, and healthcare industries. It also drives a

wide range of sustainable innovations, such as efficient

coatings for photovoltaic cells and nontoxic silicones.

One of the most enthusiastic voices for Bluestar’s future

belongs to company president Ru Chengjun: “A strong

economy relies on a strong chemicals industry because

the chemicals industry is related to so many things. This

gives us a great opportunity to grow.”

A Trusted Recommendation

In 2009, when Bluestar was looking for a turbomachinery

provider for a new butanediol (BDO) production plant,

Ru Chengjun received a recommendation from a trusted

colleague – and subsequently decided to work with an

Atlas Copco turbocompressor.

BDO, a chemical intermediate used to produce high-

performance polymers, solvents, and fine chemicals, is

a major growth segment in the field. The turbomachinery

Bluestar needed had to be absolutely reliable at all times

to ensure stable and efficient production at the facility.

A Visit to Cologne

After a visit to the Gas and Process headquarters in

Cologne, Ru Chengjun returned to Nanjing deeply

impressed. With an Atlas Copco turbocompressor driving

the process, the Nanjing BDO plant went live in May 2009

and was already running at 100% capacity one month later.
