TAQA Aggregated Pneumatics Conversion Project
0896-0976
The project will achieve greenhouse gas emission reductions through the electrification of pneumatic devices (Pneumatic Device Electrification) and the conversion of instrument gas systems (Instrument Gas to Instrument Air Pneumatic Device System Conversion). For optimum performance, oil and gas wells and associated equipment require various chemicals to be injected into their operating systems to prevent freezing or corrosion. Historically, at remote oil and gas wells, pneumatic pumps were used to inject these chemicals. The pneumatic pumps were supplied by pressurized natural gas sourced from the well itself and subsequently, the natural gas was expelled to the atmosphere when the pump was actuated. Instrument control devices on site such as level controllers, pressure controllers, and positioners were typically also powered by freely available natural gas. In the baseline condition, the pneumatic pumps and instrument control devices vent methane when actuated. In the project condition, vented methane is removed by replacing the pneumatic pumps with non-venting electric pumps powered by solar-battery systems or grid electricity and replacing the instrument gas devices with instrument air. The calculated volume of chemical injected, or the number of pump strokes made in the project condition can be used to determine emissions associated with the pneumatic pumps in the baseline condition. The quantity of natural gas that would have been vented in the absence of the project, estimated by measuring the volume of compressed air consumed by the instrument air system, can be used to determine emissions associated with the instrument gas system in the baseline condition.
